STUDENT MANUAL SCIENCE LESSON 176

Lesson 176 Review the concepts of light

Light is a form of energy that travels in squiggly lines called waves. Light energy ismagnet and it is electrical. Most of these electromagnet waves cannot be seen. Light energy is made up of tiny particles, called photons. Photons group together in awave and make a light ray.

If you had a prism white light can be separated up into red, orange, yellow, green, blue,indigo and violet. The colors of a rainbow are what can be seen. Each differentwavelength has different energy. The longer the wavelength the less energy it has. Light also travels in all directions from its primary source. What is our primary source oflight…the sun! Light comes in form of rays. Light travels at 186,000 miles per second. Light can travel through empty space. Light energy can be absorbed or it can be reflected. Light can also be refracted or bent in different directions.

When light passes through transparent matter, this is called transmission. The sun lightsup the world around us.

STUDENT MANUAL SCIENCE LESSON 177

Lesson 177 Someone to know?

A curious mind can find out many things about the world around us. One young girl didjust that. She collected 30 jars of the family’s rose bushes. She collected one bumblebee,one yellow jacket, and one wasp. She observed how different foods affected the insectsand how the different insects got along with each other.

This young scientist was Shirley Jackson. She was one of the great nuclear physicists ofher time. In 1973, Dr. Jackson became the first African-American woman to receive adoctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She studied particles that aresmaller than atoms and the forces that bind these particles together.

In 1948, scientists learned that the atoms in silicon and a few other materials could beused to transmit electricity. These materials are called semiconductors. The discovery ofsemiconductors eventually led to the invention of the computer. Dr. Jackson’s laterresearch on semiconductors helped develop a semiconductor laser. Every time you playyour CD player, you use a semiconductor laser.

In 1995, Dr. Jackson became the first African-American woman to head the NuclearRegulatory Commission (NRC). It became her job to make sure that our nuclear plantswere safe and to find safe ways to store nuclear wastes. When she found out that someplants were ignoring NRC safety rules, she shut them down. She also increased plantinspections so that problems could be found more quickly.

Dr, Jackson is currently the President of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. She is the firstAfrican-American woman to lead a national research university. She hopes that all her“firsts” will inspire other students to become scientists.

What discovery led to the invention of the computer? What were Dr. Jackson’s two duties as head of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission?

What is a Nuclear Engineer? If you are interested in physics, you may want to be a nuclear engineer. A nuclearengineer works with nuclear power, the strongest source of energy known. Nuclear powercan be used to produce weapons and generate electricity. It can also be used for medicalpurposes such as taking X-rays.

Many nuclear engineers work at nuclear power plants, making sure the plant is runningsafely. Some work in laboratories conducting research on atomic particles and how to usethe energy contained in the atom.

Lesson 178 Your skeleton

What do we have bones for? What is the function of a skeleton? Do you know how manybones you have in your body?

Our skeleton is a supporting frame. It ismade up of bones. The skeleton hasseveral jobs.

It gives the body its shape and protectsthe body organs.

It works with muscles to move the body.

There are 206 bones in the skeleton. Each has a size and shape that best fitsits job.

The long strong bones support thebody’s weight.

The major bones are: skull, clavicle(shoulder), humerus (upper arm), ribs,illium (hip bone), vertebra (back bone),femur (upper leg), tibia (lower leg) andpatella (knee).

Skeletons need to joints. A joint is aplace where two or more bones meet. Joints can be classified into three majorgroups: immovable joints, partlymovable joints, and movable joints.

Immovable joints are places wherebones fit together too tightly to move. Nearly all the 29 bones in the skull meetat immovable joints. Only the lower jawcan move. Partly movable joints are places wherebones can move only a little. Ribs areconnected to the breastbone with joints.

STUDENT MANUAL SCIENCE LESSON 178

A gliding joint is movable. In the hand and wrist there are small bones called gliding joints. The bones can slide against one another. These joints allow some movement in alldirections.

The hip has a ball-and-socket joint. Here the ball of one bone fits into the socket or cup, ofanother bone. This allows the bones to move back and forth, in a circle, and side to side.The hinge joint can be found in the knee. It is similar to a door hinge. It allows bones tomove back and forth in one direction.

Then there is the pivot joint found in the neck. It allows the head to move up and down,and side to side.

Lesson 179 Two more systems of the body

Exercise will help our muscles function for us. There are three types of muscles: skeletalmuscles, cardiac muscle and smooth muscle.

The muscles that are connected to the bones are called skeletal muscles. They areattaché to bones by a tough cord called a tendon. Skeletal muscles pull bones to move. They do not push bones.

Cardiac muscles arefound in only one place: the heart. The walls ofthe heart are made ofstrong cardiac muscles. When cardiac musclescontract, they squeezeblood out of the heart. When they relax, theheart fills with blood.

Smooth muscles makeup internal organs andblood vessels. Smoothmuscles in the lungshelp a person breathe. Those muscles in theblood vessels helpcontrol blood flowaround the body.

Your circulatorysystem consists ofthe heart, bloodvessels and blood. Circulation is the flowof blood through thebody. Blood is aliquid that cells, andplatelets. Red bloodcells carry oxygenand nutrients to cells. White blood cellswork to fight germsthat enter the body. Platelets are cellfragments that makethe blood clots.

Your heart is amuscle that is aboutthe size of your fist. Itbeats about 70 to 90times a minute,pumping bloodthrough the bloodvessels. Arteriescarry blood awayfrom the heart. Somearteries carry blood tothe lungs, where thecells pick up oxygen. The arteries carryoxygen-rich bloodfrom the lungs to allother parts of the

body. Veins carry blood from other parts of the body back to the heart. Blood in mostveins carries the waste released by cells and has little oxygen. Blood flows from arteriesto veins through narrow vessels called capillaries.
