Introduction to passive and active transport

These four short online lessons will cover the following:

• The planets of the solar system
• Planet orbits in the solar system
• Gravity in the solar system
• Inner vs outer planets

This YouTube video will guide you through a fun activity where you will draw the earth's continents and oceans.

This online tutorial guides you through what information a map shows, map legends and the different types of maps which are available.

In this chapter, we’ll use vectors to expand our understanding of forces and motion into two dimensions. Most real-world physics problems (such as with the game of pool pictured here) are, after all, either two- or three-dimensional problems and physics is most useful when applied to real physical scenarios. We start by learning the practical skills of graphically adding and subtracting vectors (by using drawings) and analytically (with math). Once we’re able to work with two-dimensional vectors, we apply these skills to problems of projectile motion, inclined planes, and harmonic motion.

Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration. Osmosis helps regulate the flow of water in and out of cells, which is crucial to their function.
