States of Matter
What is matter?
Material that has mass and takes up an amount of space.
What is melting? What is freezing?
Solid changes to a liquid. Energy is absorbed. Particles increase movement. Liquid changes into a solid. Energy is given off. Particles slow down.
What is an ecosystem?
Is a system that environments and their organisms form through their interaction.
What is photosynthesis?
The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food.
What is cellular respiration?
Respiration is the process by which cells obtain energy from glucose
What is an element?
A chemical substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by chemical reactions.
What is condensation? What is vaporization?
Gas changes into a liquid. Energy is given off. Particles slow down and come closer together. Liquid changes into a gas. Energy is absorbed. Particles speed up, spread far apart, and expand to fill the container.
What is an inverterbrate?
Is an animal without a backbone.
Where does photosynthesis occur?
In the chloroplast
Where does cellular respiration occur?
In the Mitochandria
What is a solid and how are the particles in a solid?
In a solid, the attractive forces keep the particles together tightly enough so that the particles do not move past each other.
What is sublimation?
Solid changes into a gas. Does not pass through the liquid state. Goes directly from a solid to a gas.
What is a vertbrate?
An animal with a backbone and skeleton.
A starting material in a chemical reaction. A substance produced in a chemical reaction.
What is a chemical bond?
The force that holds two atoms together
What is a liquid and how are the particles in a liquid?
In a liquid, particles will flow or glide over one another, but stay toward the bottom of the container.
What is a chemical change? What is a physical change?
A change in the type of matter that produces one or more new substances. A change in shape/state of an object.
What is biodiversity?
The variety of all living things and their interactions
How do we get out energy from photosynthesis?
Nearly all living things obtain energy either directly or indirectly from the energy of sunlight captured during photosynthesis.
Who can go through cellular respiration?
The calls of animals, plants, and fungi
What is a gas and how are the particles in a gas?
In a gas, particles are in continual straight-line motion
What is a chemical property? What is a physical property?
A characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances. A characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance.
What is a consumer? What is a producer?
A consumer is an organism that cannot produce its own food and must eat other plants and/or animals to get energy. A producer is an organism that creates its own food and energy.
What is the photosynthesis equation?
6CO2+6H2O->C6H12O6+6O2
What is the cellular respiration equation?
C6H12O6+6O2->6CO2+6H2O+ENERGY
