Cancer
Identify the disease caused by uncontrolled cell division.
Cancer
Identify the process plants use to make their own food using sunlight.
Photosynthesis
Identify the type of organism that makes its own food.
Producer
Identify the soil material made of partially decayed plant matter that stores carbon.
Peat
Identify the environmental factor that affects how fast chemical reactions occur in cells.
Temperature
Identify the term for the spread of cancer cells from the place where they first formed to another part of the body.
Metastasis
Identify the gas that humans and animals breathe out as a waste product of cellular respiration.
Carbon Dioxide
Identify the type of consumer that eats both plants and animals.
Omnivore
Identify the ecosystem component that stores carbon for thousands of years but becomes a carbon source when thawed.
Permafrost
Identify the substance used to detect carbon dioxide in experiments.
Bromothymol blue
Identify the term for a mass of abnormal cells that develops when cells divide and grow uncontrollably.
Tumor
Identify the gas released during photosynthesis.
Oxygen
Identify the type of consumer that eats only plants.
Herbivore
Identify the process that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and stores it long-term.
Carbon sinking
Identify the season during which a "zombie fire" smolders underground in peat or coal deposits, only to reignite on the surface once the snow melts.
Winter
Identify the cancer therapy that may be administered orally or intravenously to destroy cancer cells throughout the body.
Chemotherapy
Identify the process by which cells release energy from glucose.
Cellular respiration
Identify the specific type of "vore" represented by a Great White Shark, which hunts seals and fish to obtain energy exclusively from animal tissue.
Carnivore
Identify the type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus.
Mitosis
Identify the term for the visible area of scorched land left behind after a wildfire, which can be seen from space and helps scientists track environmental recovery.
Burn Scar
Identify the type of tumor that is non-cancerous, does not spread, and is usually easy to remove.
Benign
Identify the specific pigment found in chloroplasts that absorbs sunlight to initiate the process of photosynthesis.
Chlorophyll
Identify the type of organism that gets energy by breaking down dead plants and animals, returning nutrients to the soil.
Decomposer
Identify the color that Bromothymol blue will turn when high levels of carbon dioxide are present, indicating that the solution has become acidic.
Yellow
Identify the color a Bromothymol blue solution will remain if an aquatic plant is placed in it under bright sunlight, due to the plant consuming carbon dioxide faster than it can be produced.
