Climacteric fruit: The climacteric is a stage of fruit ripening associated with ethylene production and cell respiration rise. Apples, bananas, melons, apricots, tomatoes (among others) are climacteric fruit. Citrus, grapes, strawberries are non-climacteric (they ripen without ethylene and respiration bursts).

Chlorophyll: A green-coloured compound or ‘pigment’ in plants that converts radiant energy to chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Chemical reaction: The formation of new substances from one or more reactants, by breaking existing electrical bonds and creating others.
Chemical indicator: Any substance used to classify another, often by changing colour.
Chemical element: Any of the more than 100 known substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances and that individually or in combination constitute all matter.
Cereal: A breakfast food prepared from grain
Centrifugal force: Centrifugal force is the effect that tends to move an object away from the centre of a circle it is rotating about (a consequence of inertia).
Centre of mass: The point at which the entire mass of a body can be considered to be concentrated. Centre of mass / gravity The point at which the entire mass of a body can be considered to be concentrated.
Cells: The basic structural and functional unit of all living organisms. Cells can exist as independent units of life (as in monads) or may form colonies or tissues as in higher plants, animals or human beings.
Celestial bodies: Objects that are naturally occurring physical entities or structures, that current science has demonstrated to exist in outer space.
Catalyst: A substance that initiates or accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being affected
Cartesian diver: The Cartesian diver was first explained by René Descartes, a sixteenth-century French mathematician
Carcinogenic: A carcinogenic substance is any substance that produces cancer or stimulates the production of cancerous cells.
Carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide is a colourless, odourless incombustible gas present in the atmosphere. It is formed during the breathing of living organisms, the decomposition and combustion of organic compounds, and in the reaction of acids with carbonates: used in fizzy drinks, fire extinguishers, and as dry ice for refrigeration.
Caramel: Made by cooking sugar slowly, used in candy making and sweetening of foods
Capillary action: The flow of liquids through porous media, such as the flow of water through blotting paper.
Capacitor: A capacitor is an electrical component used to control the flow of charge in a circuit. The name derives from their capacity to store an electric charge. Capacitors consist of two conducting surfaces separated by an insulator; a wire lead is connected to each surface. A capacitor can store electric energy and discharge it at a determined rate.
Camera obscura: A darkened enclosure in which images of outside objects are projected through a small aperture or lens onto a facing surface. A camera obscura uses the same principles as a regular camera.
Calligraphy: It is often called the ‘art of fancy lettering’ by means of an ink pen. This style of writing is described as a script and is often used for wedding invitations etc.
Calcium carbonate: Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is a common substance found in rock in all parts of the world, and is the main component of shells of marine organisms like snails, pearls, seashells and corals. Saltwater reef tank keepers have to dose or supplement this compound in order for corals to grow. Corals need calcium carbonate to grow
Calcium: A mineral salt that strengthens the bones.
Café Wall Illusion: This optical illusion was first observed and described by Doctor Richard Gregory when he noticed the curious effect in the tiles of the wall of a café in Bristol. This optical illusion makes the parallel straight horizontal lines appear to be bent. This illusion consists of alternating light and dark ‘bricks’ that are laid in staggered rows.
Buzzer: An electrical mechanism that produces an intermittent current and an audible buzzing sound, or series of sounds, when electrical current flows through it.
Buoyancy: The ability of water to support weight allowing an object to float.
Block and tackle: A block and tackle is a compound pulley where several pulleys are mounted on each axle, further increasing the mechanical advantage.
Biosphere: A ‘biosphere’, also called an ‘ecospheres’, is a mostly closed ecosystem of a specific size that contains a mix of plants and animals that is completely self-sufficient.
Binaural hearing: The perception of sound by stimulation of two ears affecting a listener’s ability to identify the location or origin of a detected sound in direction and distance.
Binary code: Electronic data used in computers. The circuit is either on or off and is represented with either a 1 or 0. The system uses the digits 0 and 1 to represent a letter, numeral or other character in a computer.
Big dipper: A group of seven bright stars in the northern sky, near the pole – also called the constellation Ursa Major or the Great Bear.
Biceps: The biceps of a human is a muscle located on the upper arm. The biceps has several functions, the most important being to rotate the forearm and to flex the elbow.
Bernoulli’s principle: The principle of conservation of energy applied to fluid flow: as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the air pressure within the fluid decreases. Named after Daniel Bernoulli, a Swiss mathematician and scientist, Bernoulli is famous for his work in the field of fluid dynamics. In 1738 he wrote a book called Hydrodynamica. In this book he explained his theories about how gases and fluids move, and how the speed at which they move affects the pressure they exert on objects they flow around.
Berlese funnel: A device in which soil is placed; heat and light are applied from above, forcing bugs into a container below it. Named after Antonio Berlese an Italian entomologist.
Benjamin Franklin: Benjamin Franklin, (January 17, 1706 – April 17, 1790) was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States of America. Franklin was a leading author and printer, satirist, political theorist, politician, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, and diplomat. As a scientist, he was a major figure in the Enlightenment and the history of physics for his discoveries and theories regarding electricity.
Zoomorphic: motifs based on animal forms.
Ziggurat: ancient Babylonian and Assyrian pyramid-shaped construction. See: Assyrian Art (c.1500-612 BCE).
Yellow Book: influential quarterly magazine published from 1894, of which Aubrey Beardsley (1872-98) was art editor.
Yamato-e: the School of Japanese painting from the 10th to the 15th century that preserved the native traditions.
Xylography: Early form of wood engraving, first seen in China in the 1st century CE. Xylography is the oldest known engraving technique.
Word Art: Includes any text-based word painting, sculpture or graphic art. Exponents include Barbara Kruger (b.1945), Christopher Wool (b.1955) and On Kawara (1932-2014).
Wood Carving: Reached its apogee in Late Gothic Germany, at the hands of master wood-carvers like Veit Stoss (1450-1533) and Tilman Riemenschneider (1460-1531).
Woodblock: Print produced from a design on a wooden block. See also Woodcut prints.
Watercolour Painting: Uses a water-soluble painting medium. Watercolours are usually applied with brushes, but several other tools may also employed. The most common painting techniques are known as wet-on-dry and wet-on-wet, plus the dry brush techniques dry-on-dry and dry-on-wet. Watercolours can be removed while still wet, by blotting. When watercolour are made thicker, opaque and mixed with white, it is generally referred to as gouache. Thomas Girtin and JMW Turner were two great pioneers of the art form.
Visual art: A broad category of artistic disciplines, encompassing the fine arts, some of the applied arts and certain modern art forms.
Viking Art: Norse art mainly embraces portable metalwork and carvings.
Video Art: Contemporary form pioneered by artists like Andy Warhol (1928-87) and Bill Viola (b.1951). Can be either stand-alone or combined with other media in an installation.
