Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. In physics, the delta symbol (\(\Delta\)) represents change so the formula for acceleration becomes \(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)

An atom is the smallest component of an element that still retains the properties of the element.

An element is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods.

A person's genotype is their genetic makeup and includes both dominant and recessive alleles. Phenotype is how the genes express themselves in physical characteristics.

Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
