Graph It!
A visual display of data.
What is a graph?
A student hypothesized that green algae will grow faster when exposed to blue light compared to other colors of light. The color of light the algae are exposed to...
What is the independent variable?
This type of map is best at showing the differences in elevation.
What is a contour/topographic map?
This study encompasses physics, geology, geography, meteorology, mathematics, chemistry, and biology.
What is Earth Science?
Three types of planets.
What are terrestrial, Jovian, and dwarf?
Bar, Line, and Pie graphs
What are 3 types of graphs?
This the variable that you are measuring.
What is the dependent variable?
This imaginary line does not pass through the north and south poles.
What is the equator?
The lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere.
What are Earth's major spheres?
In this season, the axis of the Earth is pointed away from the sun?
What is winter?
This type of graph is used to illustrate the following data set: Percentage of greenhouse gases that comprise global warming"
Carbon dioxide: 88%
Water Vapor: 2%
Sulfur Hexafluoride: 8%
Nitrous Oxide 2%
What is a pie/circle graph?
This scientific statement must be testable and it must answer the question posed in the problem.
What is a hypothesis?
The is the point where longitude and latitude intersect.
What is the absolute location?
Water condenses out of the air as dew on the ground.
What is the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and geosphere interacting?
The point at which a planets orbit is traveling the fastest.
What is when it is closest to the sun?
These will represent qualitative data, or random categories.
What is a bar graph?
Researchers use this in an experiment to show that the results of the experiment are actually due to the condition being tested.
What is a control?
On a map it connects points of equal elevation.
What is a contour line?
Plants take in water through their roots.
What is the interaction between the biosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere?
____________ played a major role in the formation of the solar system.
What is gravity?
The x-axis and the y-axis show the relationship between these two variables.
What is the independent and dependent variables.
This is planned and organized, but not rigid, step-by-step outline used to solve problems.
What is the scientific method?
These lines run parallel to the equator.
What is latitude?
True/False: Most of the energy that leaves the Earth travels in the form of visible light?
False.
Draw a diagram that shows the position of the Sun, moon, and Earth during neap tide. Be sure to shade and label your model.
