Greenhouse Effect
The layer of Earth in the air that contains gases.
The atmosphere
This is energy that can be replenished over a short period of time and is sustainable.
Renewable energy
This is the gas that plants produce after the process of photosynthesis.
Oxygen
True/False
N2 is a greenhouse gas.
False (nitrous oxide is)
This is Mrs Utley's favourite beverage.
Coffee
These are the elements that make up carbon dioxide.
Carbon and oxygen
This is energy that is derived from sources that cannot be replenished within a human lifetime.
Non-renewable energy
This is one reason why deforestation occurs.
Obtain wood for fuel, make space for agriculture/animal grazing/housing
The role that gases in the Earth's atmosphere play are similar to a greenhouse.
They trap heat within the Earth's atmosphere
This is the one job that you can do as a student in the classroom that would help your science teacher have a nice day.
(any of the following or something similar)
stay in your seat
do the work
follow instruction
listen when Mrs Utley is speaking
A layer on Earth that ensures it has a relatively stable temperature compared to other planets in its solar system.
Ozone layer
This gas is the result largely from livestock and animal grazing.
Methane
What is an example of a transfer between spheres in the carbon cycle?
(Any of the below)
Atmosphere and hydrosphere
Atmosphere and biosphere
biosphere and lithosphere
lithosphere and hydrosphere
This is what greenhouse gases do in our atmosphere.
These gases absorb the sun heat and emits radiant heat.
This is your favorite food.
What is (whatever student says)?
This is how we reduce the greenhouse effect to slow the rise of our Earth's temperatures.
Reduce the amount of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere
This is not a fossil fuel.
(any fuel source other than a fossil fuel)
Solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, biofuel
This gas is what plants take in for the during the process of photosynthesis.
Carbon dioxide
This is the most significant source of greenhouse gases?
Burning of fossil fuels
Mrs. Utley and Miss Pace specialise in this science.
Chemistry
DAILY DOUBLE!!!!!!
True/False
Nitrogen gas contributes to the greenhouse effect.
False
This is how we produce much of the carbon dioxide in our Earth's atmosphere.
Burning fossil fuels
This is how photosynthesis contributes to regulating climate.
Absorbing carbon dioxide and maintaining the balance of the greenhouse effect.
These are three of the greenhouse gases.
(name any three of the six greenhouse gases)
Carbon dioxide
Nitrous oxide
water vapour
methane
This is why science is important.
Science is in everything
