This diagram all comes down to one thing; that is cells are the building blocks of life. Cells are the functioning units of living things. All cells share certain common components. These parts are cytoplasm, cell membrane, ribosome and DNA. The DNA is the specific instructions or makeup which explains that specific cell. There are many different types of cells. Some cells in this diagram include blood cells, skin surface cells, bone cells, neuron, smooth muscle cells, cardiac muscle cell, skeletal muscle cell and columnar epithelial and goblet cells. These cells all help makeup the human body.

This diagram shows the arrangement of optics found in a reflecting telescope. Light enters the optical tube through it's aperture, a circular opening at the forward end of the tube. When light enters the telescope, it encounters a concave reflecting mirror at the back of telescope tube. This large reflecting mirror is called the objective. Light reflected from the objective converges on a small right angle mirror at the center of the optical tube. This mirror reflects the gathered light to the eyepiece. The lenses in the eyepeice take this light and bring an image to focus for a human to see.

Water is a transparent common substance that makes up the earth's oceans, lakes, seas, rivers, streams and more. Water is essential for every living thing to replenish and hydrate. The chemical formula for water contains one oxygen atom to two hydrogen atoms. Everything from the earth's crust to the human brain contain great amounts of water. Water on earth is continually being used and then goes through the water cycle to become new and usable again. The water cycle involves evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation and runoff. Even though water does not have any calories or nutritional benefit it is essential to all living forms on earth. Fishing which occurs in salt and fresh type waters yields much food for the world's people. Water even involves exercise for those who like to swim and engage in other sports like water skiing, wakeboarding and so on.

We use electricity for many purposes. Devices such as lights, stoves, and stereos all use electricity and convert it to energy in other forms. However, devices may vary in how quickly they change electricity to other forms of energy.

Minerals are made by natural processes, those that occur in or on Earth. A diamond created deep in Earths crust is a mineral, but a diamond made in a laboratory by humans is not. Be careful about buying a laboratory-made diamond for jewelry. It may look pretty, but its not a diamond and is not technically a mineral.

The diagram shows different kinds of waves. Visible light is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see. Visible light includes all the colors of the rainbow. Each color is determined by its wavelength. Visible light ranges from violet wavelengths of 400 nanometers (nm) through red at 700 nm. There are parts of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans cannot see. This radiation exists all around you. You just cant see it! Every star, including our Sun, emits radiation of many wavelengths. Astronomers can learn a lot from studying the details of the spectrum of radiation from a star. Many extremely interesting objects cant be seen with the unaided eye.

This diagram shows light waves of varying lengths, and some of their characteristics. The red line illustrates the wavelengths. Above that is a bar showing which light waves penetrate the Earth's atmosphere. Below the red line are the names of the different types of light, with their wavelength measured in (m). The illustrations of physical objects are to show scale. Below that is a diagram of the different light frequencies, measured in Hertz. Below that is a measure of the temperatures at which these light waves are most commonly emitted.

Most of the energy that reaches the Earths surface comes from the Sun (Figure 1.1). About 44% of solar radiation is in the visible light wavelengths, but the Sun also emits infrared, ultraviolet, and other wavelengths.

Radiation is the transfer of energy by waves. Energy can travel as waves through air or empty space. The Suns energy travels through space by radiation. After sunlight heats the planets surface, some heat radiates back into the atmosphere.

Lenses make use of the refraction of light to create images. A lens is a transparent object, typically made of glass, with one or two curved surfaces. The more curved the surface of a lens is, the more it refracts light. Like mirrors, lenses may be concave or convex.

A photon isnt a fixed amount of energy. Instead, the amount of energy in a photon depends on the frequency of the electromagnetic wave. The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time, such as the number of waves per second. In waves with higher frequencies, photons have more energy.

Energy from the Sun comes from the lightest element, hydrogen, fusing together to create the second lightest element, helium. Nuclear fusion on the Sun releases tremendous amounts of solar energy. The energy travels to the Earth, mostly as visible light. The light carries the energy through the empty space between the Sun and the Earth as radiation.

Some properties of matter can be measured or observed only when matter undergoes a change to become an entirely different substance. These properties are called chemical properties. They include flammability and reactivity.
