Energy
How does energy change or move?
Energy moves by being transferred from one store or object to another
Explain the greenhouse effect?
it traps heat from the sun to make plants grow throughout cooler climates
What is a food web?
A food web shows who eats who in an ecosystem, connecting multiple simpler food chains.
What Energy is used for Electricity?
Kinetic Energy
Name greenhouse gasses
Carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gasses
what are consumers?
organisms that obtain energy by eating other organisms.
What are the difference between kinetic and potential energy?
kinetic energy in motion and potential energy is stored energy
how does the greenhouse effect work?
The sunlight warms the earth. The greenhouse gasses absorb the heat which sends back heat in all directions.
identify producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and tertiary consumers
producers: organism creates its own food
Primary consumers: organism that feeds on producers
secondary consumers: organism that gets its energy by eating primary consumers
tertiary consumers: carnivores or omnivores that eat secondary consumers
How many and name the types of energy?
10 types
Solar Energy, Energy Transformations, Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy, Chemical Energy, Elastic Energy, Electrical Energy, Sound Energy, Sound Energy, and Thermal Energy
How does the temperature change when you decrease the CO2?
COa traps the heat so temperatures get warmer.
what is another word for heterotrophs and autotrophs
Hetetrophs- producers
Autotrophs- producers
Name what energy goes with what:
Solar panels, wind miles, ethanol, and water power
Solar panels: electrical energy
Wind miles: kinetic energy
Ethanol: chemical energy
Water power: kinetic energy when the water is moving and it is also potential energy when its stored of held at a height
Are greenhouse effect and global warming the same?
NO
Greenhouse: natural atmosphere process that keeps earth warm
Global Warming: increase of Earth's average temperature by human activities
put this in order from producers, primary consumers, and secondary consumers
Lions, Tall trees/grasses, impala
producer- tall trees/ grasses
primary- impala
secondary- lions
