Let's talk about density
Buoyant or nah
Do you remember Bio?

What is an observation?

Something made using your 5 senses.

How is mass related to density?

Mass is divided by volume to give density of an object

100

This object is yellow and most often floats in bathtubs. It is bouyant.

A rubber duck

100

What is a cell?

The smallest living unit of life.

200

This will ALWAYS stay the same in an experiment. 

A Constant!

What is density?

Density is how much stuff can fit into a space

200

Name an object that DOES NOT have buoyancy.

Rock, car, etc.

200

What is ATP?

Energy!

300

True or false, an independent variable will stay the same and not change.

FALSE. Variable means change

If I break a chocolate bar in half, what happens to its density?

It stays the same! The density of an object is always the same, no matter the size.

300

Name an object that IS NOT buoyant. 

Varies

What is the job of the DIGESTIVE system?

To break down food into smaller parts that can be absorbed into cells and used for body processes.

400

Classify the following words, and explain the title of the categories:

Pink, Orange, Pickle, Lettuce, Blue, Mayonnaise 

Sandwich toppings and colors

400

If the MASS of a cookie is 2, and the VOLUME is 4, what would I do to find the density?

Divide mass by volume and get 2.
400

WHY did the fudge striped cookie float for EVERYONE?

It had chocolate on the bottom?

400

What is the name of the female reproductive cell?

An egg

500

Explain why a cruise ship can float, but a cookie, which is much smaller, can sink.

The cruise ship is buoyant! It has a density that is less than the water it floats in. (At least as long as too much stuff isn't packed in to the ship!)

500

What object has THE MOST density?

a feather, a brick, YOU

A brick! It has the most mass in its volume!

500

If YOU are buoyant in water, does that mean you will float in all liquids? Why or why not?

NO. Water has a density of 1, so things less than 1 float, but not all liquids have a density of 1.

500

What is the point of mitosis?

To make new cells! So you grow and repair!
