Energy
This is the SI unit used to measure energy.
Joules (j)
This renewable energy source uses sunlight to generate electricity.
Solar Energy
This term describes the maintenance of stable internal conditions in an organism.
Homeostasis
This type of substance contains only one type of atom.
Element
This piece of equipment is used to measure temperature.
Thermometer
This type of energy is possessed by an object because it is moving.
Kinetic Energy
Coal, oil and natural gas belong to this group of energy sources.
Fossil Fuels
This is the basic functional unit of the nervous system.
Neuron
This particle has a positive electrical charge and is found in the nucleus.
Proton
This section of a scientific report states what you think will happen in an experiment.
Hypothesis
This type of energy is stored in an object because of its height above the ground.
Gravitational potential energy (GPE)
This renewable energy source uses moving air to generate electricity.
Wind energy
This organ produces insulin to help regulate blood glucose levels.
Pancreas
This type of chemical bond involves atoms sharing electrons.
Covalent bond
This is the variable that goes on the y-axis of a graph.
Dependent variable
This equation is used to calculate kinetic energy.
KE = ½ mv^2
This renewable energy source uses moving or falling water to generate electricity.
hydroelectric energy
This type of rapid, automatic response allows the body to react to a stimulus without conscious thought.
Reflex action
This group of elements do not bond with any other elements, found in the last column of the periodic table
Noble gases
This type of graph is usually used when the independent variable is continuous, such as temperature or time.
Line graph
This energy transformation occurs when a torch converts energy stored in its battery into light.
chemical energy → electrical energy → light energy
This energy source uses heat from inside Earth’s crust to generate energy.
Geothermal energy
This part of the brain helps control body temperature
The hypothalamus
This element has the symbol Hg and is the only metallic element that is liquid at room temperature.
Mercury
This describes how consistent or repeatable a set of experimental results is.
