Essential Formulas & Mathematical Definitions

Reflex Arc: Receptor → Sensory Neuron → Spinal Cord → Motor Neuron → Effector

Reflex Arc & Brain Structure

Reflex arcs provide rapid automatic responses bypassing conscious brain decisions. Forebrain controls thinking; Medulla controls involuntary actions; Cerebellum coordinates balance.

Plant Hormones (Phytohormones)

Auxin (promotes cell elongation/phototropism), Gibberellin (stem growth), Cytokinin (cell division), Abscisic Acid (stress hormone, leaf wilting).

High-Yield Exam Strategy & Scoring Tips

Step-by-Step Mark Allocation

Always state the governing principle or formula first, write given values with standard SI units, substitute clearly, and highlight the final numerical answer with units in a box for full step marking.

Common Calculation Traps

Watch for unit prefixes (cm to m, minutes to seconds, g to kg, degrees to radians). In coordinate and ray optics problems, double-check Cartesian sign conventions before computing.
