Energy
This type of energy depends on an object’s height above the ground and gravity.
This type of heat transfer occurs when thermal energy moves through direct contact between particles
WHAT IS CONDUCTION?
This type of air mass forms over oceans and is cold?
WHAT IS A MARITIME POLAR AIR MASS?
This symbiotic relationship helps both species survive better in their environment
WHAT IS MUTUALISM?
This type of organism makes its own food using sunlight
WHAT IS A PRODUCER?
A moving bicycle has this type of energy because of its motion.
WHAT IS KINETIC ENERGY?
This process transfers thermal energy through the movement of fluids like liquids or gases.
WHAT IS CONVECTION?
AN AIR MASS THAT FORMS OVER LAND AND IS WARM.
WHAT IS A CONTINENTAL TROPICAL AIR MASS?
Moss growing on a tree trunk without harming the tree is an example of this relationship.
WHAT IS COMMENSALISM?
An animal that eats only plants is called this.
WHAT IS AN HERBIVORE?
A stretched rubber band stores this kind of energy
WHAT IS ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY?
This type of heat transfer does not require matter and can occur through empty space
WHAT IS RADIATION?
The boundary where two different air masses meet.
WHAT IS A FRONT?
Tapeworms living inside humans show this kind of symbiosis
WHAT IS PARASITISM?
This type of consumer breaks down dead plants and animals.
When no energy is lost, potential energy changing into kinetic energy is an example of this principle.
WHAT IS THE CONSERVATION OF ENERGY?
This substance slows down the transfer of thermal energy and keeps heat from escaping quickly.
WHAT IS AN INSULATOR?
Thunderstorms are most commonly caused by this type of weather front
WHAT IS A COLD FRONT?
Oxpecker birds eating ticks off rhinos is an example of this relationship
WHAT IS MUTUALISM?
This consumer eats other animals for energy.
WHAT IS A CARNIVORE?
This variable, along with mass, affects how much kinetic energy an object has
WHAT IS SPEED?
Thermal energy always moves from warmer objects to cooler ones until this becomes equal.
WHAT IS TEMPERATURE?
This type of front causes cloudy skies but little precipitation because air masses aren’t moving much
WHAT IS A STATIONARY FRONT?
This type of symbiosis is usually harmful and can cause disease
WHAT IS PARASITISM?
In a food web, arrows always point in the direction of this
WHAT IS ENERGY FLOW?
