Define net force and hence state Newton's second law of motion.

net force is the total amount of force acting on an object. Netwons second law of motion states that if a force is applied to an object, it will accelerate, and the rate of acceleration will depend on the mass of the object (force= mass x acceleration)

Had my science exam today.

one question was really ambiguous.

It said meisos and mitosis in one cloumn. Then it said role in another. then it said location in another.

Meiosis - occurs in gametes (sex cells - sperm and egg cells), role is to produce diploid zygote with correct number of chromosomes?
Mitosis - occurs in body cells, role is the repair and growth of cells.

Yeah I just wrote: mitosis - occurs in cells to replicate and create a full number of chromsomes
meiosis - occurs in sex cells to produce half the number of chromosomes for reproduction and fusion of gametes.

Voltage is a measure of electrical pressure within an electric circuit causing the current to flow. It is measured in units of volts.
Resistance is the property of a conductor which restricts the flow of current. It is measured in ohms.
Current is a measure of the flow of electrons throughout an electric circuit. It is measured in amperes or amps.
Ohm's law states that V=IR, where V is voltage, I is current and R is the resistance within an electric circuit.

Voltage is the amount of energy dropped between two points in a circuit, and is measures in volts. Current, is the flow of electrons in a circuit and is measured in amps. Resistance restricts the flow of electrons (current) in a circuit. Resistance is measured in ohms. Ohm's law is V=IR where, V represents voltage, I represents current and R represents resistance. Ohm's law demonstrates the relationship between Voltage, current and resistance.
