Forces of Nature
This force pulls objects with mass toward each other.
Gravity
Particles are packed tightly, with a fixed shape and fixed volume.
Solid
This rock forms when magma or lava cools.
Igneous Rock
Heat from the Sun turns liquid water into vapor in this SET process.
Evaporation
The mnemonic LEEGC, which sounds like "Legacy," helps you remember this cycle.
Carbon Cycle
This force acts between electric charges and magnets.
Electromagnetism
This state takes the shape of its container but keeps a fixed volume.
Liquid
This rock forms from layers of compacted and cemented sediment.
Sedimentary Rocks
Plants release water vapor through their leaves in this SET process
Transpiration
The L in LEEGC stands for this, including plants and animals that take in and release carbon.
Life
This strongest force holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.
Strong Nuclear Force
This state spreads out to fill any container.
Gas
This rock is changed by heat and pressure.
Metamorphic Rock
Water moving deeper down through soil and rock layers is this PICDP process.
Percolation
The two E's in LEEGC stand for these.
Energy and Ecosystem
*Daily Double : This force is behind radioactive decay
What is Weak Nuclear Force
This superheated, charged state makes up the Sun and the stars.
Plasma
This process breaks rock into smaller pieces.
Weathering
DAILY DOUBLE: SET stands for these three processes that send water up.
Sublimation. Evaporation and Transpiration
Plants taking in carbon dioxide to build tissue connects to this G in LEEGC
Growth
Scientists recognize this many fundamental forces of nature.
Four
TRIPLE DOUBLE: This fifth state forms when atoms are cooled near absolute zero and act as one.
Bose-Einstein Condensate
Wind, water, and ice carry sediment away in this process.
Erosion
PICDP stands for these five processes that send water down.
What are precipitation, infiltration, condensation, deposition, and percolation?
Carbon dioxide trapping heat links the cycle to this C in LEEGC, also called temperature. →
