Claim
Evidence
Reasoning
Why do lids help keep drinks warm?
They reduce heat loss to air
Particles that are close together and vibrating are most likely found in this state of matter
Solid
Earthquakes Volcanos and Tsunamis are most common at this tectonic plate boundary type.
Convergent
This type of communication is used to wirelessly send information to many people at once without cell phone towers
Radio
This is the type of variable that the scientist changes in an experiment.
Independent variable
These are pieces of evidence that are measurable using numbers
Quantitative Data
When temperature increases, particles...
move faster and spread out
Feeling the warmth of sunlight on your face is an example of this type of heat tranfer
Radiation
This type of tectonic plate boundary is denoted by plates sliding alongside each other and are known for earthquakes.
Transform
This is a powerful destructive swirling column of air
Tornado
The is the variable in an experiment that is measured by the scientist. It is the one impacted by the change the experimenter made.
Dependent variable
non-numerical information that describes qualities, characteristics, and attributes
Qualitative Data
When two objects touch, heat flows until they reach the same...
Temperature (equalibrium)
If I wear a glove made of copper cloth on one hand and one made of cotton cloth on the other which hand will stay warmer, and why?
the cotton hand will stay warmer because cotton is a good insulator and slows the transer of energy.
Tsunamis are NOT likely at this type of plate boundary that is associated with the creation of deep ocean ridges and new seafloor creation
Divergent
Seismic waves and ocean buoys are use to detect which type of natural hazard?
Tsunamis
This is a conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning
Inference
This is a pile of rocks near the shore intended to reduce the force of waves.
Rock Armor

Convection
If a substance transfers energy easily it is a...
good conductor
The location on the Earth's surface directly above where two tectonic plates slip or collide causing an earthquake is called the...
Epicenter
This is a huge series of convergent (colliding) tectonic plate boundaries found in and around the pacific ocean.

Plants need sunlight, water, and ______ to make food.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
This is a tall strong wall built along the sea's edge to block waves and reducing flooding
Seawall

Potential to Kinetic
These food molecules Build and repair muscle (ex - lean steak)
Proteins
This is a concave structure designed to redirect waves back out to sea.
A recurved wall
This is an underwater structure that is designed to reduce wave energy
