• Methods of Separating Mixtures.
  • Magnetic Materials

Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.

A solute-This is the solid which dissolves in a liquid.

A solvent-Thus is the liquid in which the solid dissolves in.

A solution-This is what is formed when solute and solvent are mixed completely.

Soluble solids:-This are solids that dissolves completely in liquids.

Insoluble solids:-These are solids that do not dissolve in liquids when they are mixed.

Miscible liquids:-This are liquids that mix to form a uniform solution eg water and milk,water and spirit, cooking oil and paraffin etc.

Immiscible liquids:-This are liquids that when put together and shaken still forms layers eg water and paraffin.

Methods of Separating Mixtures.

1. Picking:-Involves use of hands to pick big solid particles from a mixture eg mixture of maize and beans, mixture of Stones from rice etc.
2. Winnowing:- Used i separation of light solid particles from the heavy ones using the wind eg a mixture of rice and husk, a
   mixture of sorghum from the chaffs etc.
3. Sieving:- Used in separating mixture of small and large solid particles where the small particles passes through the sieve
   leaving behind the big ones eg mixture of maize and millet.
4. Use of magnet:- Used in separating magnetic materials from non magnetic materials eg Flour and iron fillings
5. Decanting:-Used to separate an insoluble solid from a liquid by gently pouring out the liquids eg mixture water and cooked
   beans.
6. Filtering:- This involves using a filter paper or a cloth to separate a mixture eg a mixture of soil and water
   NB:-The water obtained from filtering is not safe for drinking as it may contain traces of the mixtures and also germs its
   therefore advisable to boil it again

Evaporation:-This is a method that is used to separate a mixture of soluble solid from a liquid but only the solidis recovered.

Static electricity is produced by rubbing two surfaces against each other.

Current electricity is produced from:

• Hydroelectric dams
• Diesel generators Car batteries.
• Geothermal wells.
• Torch cells.
• Solar batteries

Good and Bad Conductors of Electricity

Good Conductors - These are materials that allow electricity to pass through them.

Bad conductors -These are materials that do not allow electricity to pass through them.

Electrical Appliances

•  An electric iron-used for pressing clothes.
• An electric cooker- used for cooking.
• An electric kettle-Used for boiling water or making tea.
• Radio-Used to receive information transmitted from stations.

Safety when Dealing with Electricity

• Don't work near mains.
• Don't have cables running under a carpet.
• Don't overload sockets by plugging in many electrical appliances.
• Never throw objects at a wire carrying electricity.
• Don't touch sockets and swiches with wet hands.
• Don't try to repair electrical appliances unless you have the knowledge of what you are doing.

Lightning and Safety Measures.

Lightning is a strong form of static electricity that is caused by the charges brought about by clouds .

Lightning arrestors are always fitted on tall buildings so that it when lighting strikes,the charges reach the ground

Precautions against Lighting during Thunderstorm.

• Use shoes with rubber soles while walking in the open on a rainy day.
• Don't stand on a pool of water when its raining.
• Avoiding leaning against the wall when its raining.
• Avoid carrying metallic and sharp-pointed objects when it is raining.

• Avoiding walking in open fields.

• Soil Fertility.
• Types of Fertilizers
  • Straight Fertilizer
  • Compound Fertilizer
• Advantages of using Manures and fertilizers.

Soil Fertility.

This is the ability of the soil to produce high yields for a long time.

Fertilizer: These are organic or inorganic substances that are added to soil that have lost their fertility.

They are grouped into natural fertilizers and artificial fertilizers.

Green Manure:They are made from green plants,these plants should be:

• Leafy.
• Able to grow fast.
• Able to decay quickly
• Contain a high amount of nitrogen.

Farmyard manure: They are made from animals wastes such as urine,dung, poultry droppings and animal bedding.
Compost manure: This is a mixture of decayed plants,animal waste,leaves and vegetable peelings

How to encourage fast decomposition of compost heap:

• Keeping the heap moist.
• Adding a layer of decayed materials rich in bacteria.
• Adding a layer of topsoil to introduce decomposers.
• Covering the heap duriing the wet season.
• Turning the heap occasionally,at leastafter 3-4weeks to allow circulation of air.
  NB:Farmyard manure introduces bacteria.

Mulches: These are plant materials such as plant leaves and dry grass which are used as soil cover.

Types of Fertilizers (Inorganic manure)

They are classified into two:

• Straight fertilizer
• Compound fertilizer.

Straight Fertilizers:

They contain only one macronutrient.

Examples of nitrogenous fertilizer.

• Calcium Ammonium Nitrate.
• Ammonium Sulphate Nitrate.
• Urea

Examples of Phosphatic fertilizers.

• Single super phosphate.
• Double super phosphate

Examples of potassic fertilizers.

• Muriate of potash.
• Sulphate of potash.

Compound Fertilizers:

They provide two or more of the macronutrients to a plant.

Examples of compound fertilizers.

• Diammonium Phosphate(DAP)
• Nitrogen, Phosphorus,Potassium(NPK)

Advantages of using Manures and fertilizers.

• Results in high growth rate of crops.
• Leads to high crop yields which are of high quality.
• Leads to growth of crops that are deep green in colour.
• Encourage the vegetative growth.
• Leads to quick ripening of fruits.
• Provides the necessary nutrients for growth and development of crops.
• Increase the size of seeds,grain and fruits.
• Strengths the plantstems that support the plant.
• Improves soil fertility.

Disadvantages of Using Manures and Fertilizers.

• Some are expensive to prepare eg Green manure.
• Some pollutes the environment if not use by plants immediately eg Inorganic manure.
• Some fertilizers are corrosive.
• Some manures and fertilizers scorch the plant if applied in great quantities.

• The Blood Circulatory System
  • Parts of the Circulatory System
  • Blood Components and their Functions
  • Types of Blood Vessels and their Functions.
• The Heart
  • The Circulation of Blood
  • The Importance of Blood Circulation.

The Blood Circulatory System

Parts of the Circulatory System

• The heart-The pumping organ
• The blood-The transport fluid.
• The blood vessel-They are pipes through which the blood flows

Blood Components and their Functions

• Plasma-The liquid part of the blood which transport digested food materials, salts and other dissolved substances.
• Red blood cells-They contain red colouring matter called haemoglobin, which gives blood the red colour, red blood cells
  helps in transporting oxygen.
• White blood cells-They have a nucleurs, they help in fighting and killing disease-causing germs.
• Platelets-They help in blood clotting ie further loss of blood through wound.

Types of Blood Vessels and their Functions.

Arteries:

• They carry blood away from the heart
• They have thick walls
• They have a narrow lumen.
• They have no valves since they carry blood at a high pressure  from the heart.
• They carry oxgyeneted blood except pulmonary artery which carry deoxgeneted blood from the heart to the lungs.
• Main artery is Aorta.

Veins:

• They carry blood from other body parts to the heart.
• They have thin walls.
• They have a wide lumen.
• They carry blood at a low pressure.
• They carry deoxygenated blood except pulmonary vein which carry oxygenated blood from lungs to the heart.
• Main vein is Venacava.

Capillaries:

• They are small blood vessels that help to take blood to all parts of the body.
• They are found all over the body.
• They cover a wide surface of the body.

The Heart

• It has four chambers, two chambers are on the upper parts(Auricles) and two chambers on the lower parts(Ventricles)
• The heart is also divide into left and right side which is vertically lateral to how it faced(Your left hand side becomes the right when in paper and vice versa).
• The parts include: Right auricle, Left auricle, Right ventricle and Left ventricle.
• The heart also have valves ie semi lunar valve, tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve.

The Circulation of Blood.

• Blood from all parts of the body flows into the right auricle of the heart through venacava, then its pumped through pulmonary artery to the lungs for oxidation.
• In the lungs, oxygen is added to the blood and carbon dioxide is removed.
• Oxygenated blood then flows to the left auricle of the heart through the pulmonary vein.
• The muscular left ventricle then pumps the blood to all parts of the body through the aorta. This process repeats back and forth making another cycle.
  NB: When one inhales carbon monoxide the chamber of the heart that receives it first will be left auricle, but when one is bitten by a snake the poison will first reach the right auricle through venacava.

The Importance of Blood Circulation.

• It transports food from the small intestine to all parts of the body.
• Transports oxygen from the lungs to all cells of the body.
• Transports carbondioxide from the body tissues to the lungs.
• Wastes materials like urea to the kidney.
• Transports heat to all parts of the body.

Activity: Draw a well labelled diagram of the heart.
