100

A measurement of the amount of matter in an object.

Three examples of non-renewable resources.
What are oil, coal, natural gas and nuclear power?
200

Primary ingredient in all of Earth's organic material.

What is carbon?

200

A transfer of energy from high energy to low energy.

What is heat?

200

Crystals and sometimes vesicles (holes).

What are igneous rock (characteristics)?

300
Three advantages of renewable resources.
What are constantly renewable, doesn't pollute the atmosphere and creates new jobs? (and other logical answers)
300
Three advantages to non-renewable resources.
What is cheaper to the consumer, creates jobs, infrastructure and technology already in place (and any other logical ideas)?
300

Important ingredient of the enzymes and proteins in DNA and the chlorophyll in plants.

What is nitrogen?

300

Convection

What is the transfer of energy through fluids due to differences in density?

300

Slow cooling rate yields large crystals.

What are intrusive igneous rocks?

400
Three disadvantages of renewable resources
What are expensive to build, less fuel efficient, takes up large amounts of space? (and other logical answers)
400
Three disadvantages to non-renewable resources.
What are pollutes the atmosphere, can harm the biosphere, once used: gone forever? (and other logical answers)
400
Contains the envelope of gases that helps block harmful electromagnetic radiation from the Sun.
What is the atmosphere?
400

Conduction

What is the transfer of energy through solids by the collisions of particles?

400

Densely compacted, rarely have fossils, and no pores.

What are metamorphic rock (characteristics)?

500
They don't look up.
What is the reason predator birds are killed by wind turbines?
500
Climate Change Dismissers
What is the new politically correct vocabulary for climate change deniers?
500

Contains all the land, including land under the oceans.

What is the geosphere?

500

Matter is neither be created nor destroyed. It can only change forms.

What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?

500

The similarity between the rock cycle and the Law of Conservation of Mass.

What is matter cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only change forms? Rocks cannot be created, nor destroyed: rocks can only be created from pre-existing magma or changed into a different forms of rock.
