Wave Properties Light travels as electromagnetic waves, exhibiting both wave and particle properties. These waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields traveling perpendicular to each other. The wavelength determines color, ranging from long wavelengths (red) to short wavelengths (v

Tectonic Forces Earthquakes occur when accumulated stress in Earth's crust suddenly releases along fault lines. This stress builds through tectonic plate movements, with plates either pushing against, sliding past, or moving away from each other. When friction between plates prevents movement

Mitosis Process Cellular division through mitosis ensures growth and repair in organisms. The process begins with DNA replication during interphase, followed by four main phases prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During these stages, chromosomes condense, align at the cell's equato

Basic Principles Chemical reactions involve the breaking and forming of bonds between atoms, resulting in new substances with different properties. These transformations follow conservation of mass, where the total number of atoms remains constant before and after reaction. Energy changes accompa
