These tiny organisms live in and on your body and can help keep you healthy.
What are microbes?
Cells use food to get this.
What is energy/glucose?
Molten or liquid rock that is under the ground
Magma
This is the energy of movement.
This is a form of energy that travels in waves and only moves in straight lines (cannot bend around objects)
What is light?
This body system contains many helpful bacteria that help digest food.
What is the digestive system?
This gas is needed for cellular respiration.
What is oxygen?
If an object is raised higher in the air, it has more of this type of energy.
What is potential energy?
When light bounces off an object
Reflection
The collection of microorganisms living on and in the human body.
What is the human microbiome?
This body system brings oxygen into the body.
What is the respiratory system?
A type of rock that scientists often dig in to find fossils.
This is the AVERAGE kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance.
What is temperature?
When light passes through an object
What is transmission?
These medicines are extremely important to modern medicine but can accidentally kill helpful bacteria along with harmful bacteria.
What are antibiotics?
This is a gas that the body produces as a waste product of respiration.
What is carbon dioxide?
A type of rock that often forms near underground magma chambers or near a plate boundary.
What is metamorphic rock?
These are materials that allow electricity and heat to flow faster/easier than other materials.
What are conductors?
When a object appears red, it is because it does this to all colors other than red.
What is absorption?
Patient 23 became sick with this bacteria after taking antibiotics and decreasing the healthy bacteria in their microbiome.
Clue: C.D. / Difficult to get rid of
What is C. Difficile?
Clostridioides difficile
A nutrient the body uses to heal cuts and wounds.
What is protein?
Earth processes that break down rocks into tiny sediments.
What is weathering and erosion?
If an object's molecules have more total kinetic energy than another object, then it has more of this.
What is thermal energy?
A window and a one way mirror can do both of these behaviors.
What is reflection and transmission?
