Energy & Heat Transfer
Melting occurs to the butter.
What happens to butter when it gets hot?
It makes its own food.
What is a plant?
tool used to measures how heavy something is?
What is a Balance?
a young cicada is called this in its stage.
What is A nymph?
Breaking down food and yard waste.
What is composting?
The temperature of the object goes down.
WHat is cooling?
The Sun in a Food Web.
Where does all energy in a food web start?
Nickel is this
What is Magnetic?
It is called this when an insect sheds its skin?
WHat is molting?
This term describes a resource that can be replaced naturally over a short period of time, such as solar, wind, or water energy.
What is a renewable resource?
it occurs when a liquid is left out in a room for a long time.
What Room Temperature?
They give energy to all living things that are not producers
What are Plants?
This property is the amount of space an object takes up, and it is usually measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (\(cm^{3}\)).
What is volume?
Some plants, like ferns and mosses, don't use seeds to start their life cycle; instead, they use these tiny, dust-like structures.
What are spores?
This is the massive-scale removal of trees from a forest, which can lead to habitat loss and increased soil erosion.
What is deforestation?
This transfer is a result of a spoon in hot water with melting butter in its can.
What is Heat Transfer
These organisms, like fungi and bacteria, are the "recyclers" that break down dead plants and animals to return nutrients to the soil.
What are decomposers?
This type of change happens when a substance changes its look or shape—like ice melting or paper being shredded—without actually becoming a brand-new material.
What is a physical change?
While "weather" tells you what to wear today, this term describes the average weather patterns of a region over a long period of time—usually 30 years or more
What is climate?
This type of species—like the python in the Everglades—is a non-native organism that causes harm to the ecosystem it is introduced to.
What is an invasive species?
It allows heat to move through them easily, materials like copper and steel are given this specific scientific name.
What is a thermal conductor?
This type of animal, like a lion or a shark, is at the very top of its food web and has no natural predators.
What is an apex predator?
While most substances contract when they get colder, this common liquid is unique because its molecules actually spread out and expand as it freezes into a solid.
What is water?
This is the name for the specific layer of the atmosphere where almost all weather, from clouds to rainstorms, takes place.
WHat is the troposphere?
This "effect" occurs when certain gases in Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun, keeping the planet warm enough for life but causing problems when there is too much.
What is the greenhouse effect?
