Could somebody explain the ways that fluids move?

I understand the basics of Bernoulli's equation, but that is about it. I have a final exam tomorrow, and my textbook is rubbish for this topic. What formulas should I use if I'm given a problem? What concepts and prior knowledge should I know if given a problem to find a minimum flowing velocity or the nature of a flow, or how far away a flow will reach?
I know that I am asking for an explanation of an entire topic, but I only need an answer at the high school level. I guess I'm being optimistic that somebody wil take the time to help me out.

Up or down or side to side.

fluid speed (flow) is governed by viscosity (thickness)
pressure creates a muniscus
(cant be pressurized much so it changes shape)
gravity draws water to reach its own level
permiation is how t can penetrate rock etc

research viscosity, turbulance, and newtonian flow.
wikipedia.org should help you alot
