Space & Weather
Which kind of movement describes the earth spinning resulting in night and day?
What is rotation?
The breaking down of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface by wind, water, organisms.
What is weathering?
Materials that allow electricity to easily pass through them such as metal. They also heat up very fast.
What are conductors?
List in the correct order the states of matter. Picture shown on promethean board. Slide 60
gas, solid, liquid
Type of reproduction involving 1 parent. Offspring has identical DNA to parent.
What is asexual reproduction?
Another word for orbit.
This type of rock forms when magma or lava cools and hardens. Extrusive and intrusive can also be used to describe this rock.
What is igneous rock?
What are the 2 types of circuits? NOT OPEN AND CLOSED hint: 1 path/many paths
What are series and parallel circuits?
Stored energy and energy of motion. Hint: skate Park
What is potential energy & kinetic energy?
An organism that needs to eat other living things like plants and animals for energy. NOT an omnivore/herbivore,carnivore
What is heterotroph?
What is mass?
This type of rock forms when rock breaks down into tiny pieces that get carried by water to the bottom of the ocean. Layers of these tiny pieces of rock pile up over time and eventually the layers harden into rock.
What is sedimentary rock?
Light and sound travel in waves. If a sound wave gets softer or louder, what difference would we expect to see in the wave? (see image on p board) slide 64
What is a change in amplitude? Wave get taller or shorter
In what situation would gravitational potential energy INCREASE? Hint: skate Park
What is an increase in height OR increase in mass OR when kinetic energy decreases?
Each organism has a scientific name in latin. Which level(s) of classification describe the scientific name?
What are 5 differences between the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars ) & the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune).
What is the inner planets are smaller, have no rings, few to no moons, rotate slower, revolve faster, have a higher temperature, have less gravity.
What type of plate boundary occurs where 2 plates pull apart from each other (see image on p board) At this plate boundary mid ocean ridges form. Slide 62
What is a divergent plate boundary?
If the pitch of a sound waves INCREASES, meaning the sound gets higher, what difference would we expect to see in the waves?
What is the frequency increases? Peaks of waves get closer together
What increases when kinetic energy increases? Hint: skate Park
What is speed, thermal energy, friction?
Things like air, water, sunlight and rocks are NONliving, but are part of an ecosystem. Hint: 2 words -on vocab quiz
What are abiotic factors?
What are 3 reasons why Pennsylvania experiences seasons.
What is tilt of earth at 23 degrees, position of earth in revolution, angle of sunlight, sunbeam spread.
Used to describe some metamorphic rock, this banded appearance is described as? (see image on p board) Slide 63
What is foliated rock?
Light and sound can interact with materials in 3 different ways. What are these 3 ways?
What is reflection, absorption, and transmission.
How are speed, velocity, and acceleration different?
speed= distance/time, velocity=speed + direction, acceleration=speeding up, slowing down, changing direction
Rr= right handed. Provide the correct labels/vocab words for Rr and right handed.
What is Rr is genotype and right handed is phenotype.
