🌊 WAVES (Light & Sound)
This type of wave requires a medium to travel.
What is a sound wave?
Objects with opposite charges do this.
What is attract?
The molecule that contains genetic information.
What is DNA?
The large pieces of Earth's lithosphere that move slowly over time.
What are tectonic plates?
This rock type forms when magma or lava cools and solidifies.
What is igneous rock?
The distance from one crest to the next crest.
What is wavelength?
This is the flow of electric charge through a circuit.
What is electric current?
A physical characteristic such as eye color or attached earlobes.
What is a trait?
This process in the mantle helps drive plate movement.
What are convection currents?
This rock type forms from compacted and cemented sediments.
What is sedimentary rock?
Increasing this property of a sound wave makes it louder.
What is amplitude?
In this type of circuit, if one bulb goes out, all bulbs go out.
What is a series circuit?
The observable expression of traits.
What is phenotype?
Most earthquakes occur along these.
What are plate boundaries?
Heat and pressure transform rocks into this type.
What is metamorphic rock?
When light bends as it passes from one material to another.
What is refraction?
Materials such as copper and aluminum are examples of these.
What are conductors?
Individuals with beneficial traits are more likely to survive and reproduce through this process.
What is natural selection?
A boundary where two plates move away from each other.
What is a divergent boundary?
The continuous process that changes rocks from one type to another.
What is the rock cycle?
Waves transfer this without transferring matter from place to place.
What is energy?
This circuit arrangement gives electricity more than one path to travel.
What is a parallel circuit?
Over many generations, populations change through this process.
What is evolution?
A volcano formed above a mantle plume in the middle of a plate is associated with this feature.
What is a hot spot?
his process breaks rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition.
What is weathering?
