Atom

The smallest particle of an element; made of electrons, protons, and neutrons

100

List examples of physical properties. How can you measure that property?

Physical property is density and we can measure it by mass divided by volume mass-scale and volume is l x w x h.

100

What is a chemical reaction?

A chemical reaction is a process where substances change into different substances

100

Which organism is always found at the base of a food web?

Producer

100

What role does ATP play in the process?

The role that ATP play in the process is it is energy.

200

Chemical Equation

Chemical formulas and symbols written to represent a reaction

200

What happens to the atoms involved in a chemical reaction?

They pick up speed,slow down, but it all depend on the type of reaction

200

What happens to the molecules of substances during a chemical reaction?

The molecules rearranged themselves into new substances.

200

Decomposers help recycle matter by

Breaking down dead organisms

200

What are the reactants and products of cellular respiration?

The reactants for cellular respiration is glucose and oxygen and the products are carbon dioxide,water, and ATP.

300

Chemical Property

A characteristic that can be observed or measured only when atoms rearrange during a chemical chang

300

Compare and contrast physical and chemical properties of matter.

Physical properties we can always see them, and a chemical properties is a chemical reaction has to happen for us to see them.

300

When baking soda reacts with vinegar, what evidence suggests that a chemical reaction has occurred?

When baking soda reacts with vinegar there is evidence that suggests a chemical reaction has occurred as the temperature changed and gas bubbles have formed.

300

What do producers use to make their own food.

Sunlight, water, and oxygen

300

What is the role of mitochondria in cellular respiration?

The role of the mitochondria is the location of where it happens.

400

Chemical Reaction

The process by which one or more substances change to produce one or more different substances

400

Students are challenged to duplicate MREs in the science classroom using chemical reactions. The final product must be safe and light.Which chemical reaction would be the best choice for making a heat pack based on the information in the table?

Number 4


400

Why is it important to compare properties before and after a reaction to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred?

If we don't know the properties before then we can’t determine if a chemical reaction has occurred.

400

Why do animals rely on plants for survival?

Animals rely on plants for survival is they have glucose so which then get broken down into energy in cellular respiration.

400

How does cellular respiration demonstrate the conservation of matter?

Same types of atoms and the same number of atoms in products and reactants.

500

Physical Property

A characteristic that can be observed or measured without changing the substance

500

What is density? Is it a chemical or physical property?

Density is the amount of mass per volume and it is a physical property.

500

How can you tell that frying an egg involves a chemical reaction?

Their was a color change a temperature change and gas.

500

Who is at the top of a food web 

Tertiary consumer or Secondary consumer

500

How do the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration work together in the carbon cycle?

Carbon enters photosynthesis in CO2 molecules and breaks down to rearrange into glucose.Glucose enter into cellular respiration then breaks down into and rearrange into CO2.The cycle restarts.
