Effort =results
Energy
• Is the ability to do work
• Units = joules (J)
What is work?
Echo
•Reflected sound
Question on Echo – think of there and back Speed = distance there +back
Time taken
Egestion
• Removal of
• Undigested and unabsorbed food
• (e.g. fibre) (from the body) (from large intestine, through rectum + anus)
Element
• All the atoms are the same • Listed on periodic table of elements• E.g Iron is Fe
Ecology
• Study of the relationship between
• Living things and their environment
Excretion
• Removal of the wastes of metabolism (chemical reactions) from the body
• Three organs =
• Lungs (CO2 and H2O)
• Kidneys (urine = urea, water, salt)
• *Skin (sweat =water and salt)
Electrolysis
• A chemical reaction caused by electricity
• Water split into hydrogen : oxygen (2:1)

Egg
• Female sex cell or gamete
• Made in ovary • (both humans and plants)
Electron
• Negative particle in atom
• Orbits the nucleus in shells• How many – look at atomic number (small)
Enzyme
• Catalyst made in living cell
• Amylase changes starch to maltose
Earth wire
• Brings charge to earth
• Colour =yellow/green
• Safety
• Connected to TOP pin
Evaporation
• Liquid changes to a gas • Used to separate a soluble solid from a
liquid e.g. salt and water
A= salty water B = wire gauze C = salt D= beaker E = water
Environment
• Everything that surrounds an animal or plant
Electronic Configuration
• How electrons are arranged in shells
• E.g Sodium = 2,8,1 (11 electrons)
Electronics
• Control of electric current in circuits
Electroplating
• Coating one metal with a layer of another using electric current
• Reduces corrosion
• Improves appearance
• Jewellery coated with silver
Electrical Energy
• Energy in moving charges
Equilibrium
• Balance
• Three states = stable, unstable, neutral
