Granite – igneous, limestone – sedimentary, marble – metamorphic
Why can we sometimes see the Moon during the daytime?
Because the Moon reflects sunlight and can be above the horizon during the day — when its brightness is strong enough to be seen against the blue sky.
Explain how heating and cooling affect the particle movement in matter.
Heating increases movement and spacing; cooling slows movement and brings particles closer together
Explain the flow of energy in a food web
Energy flows from producers to consumers, then to decomposers
Describe the pathway of oxygen from the air to the body’s cells.
Inhale → lungs → oxygen enters blood → heart pumps oxygenated blood → body cells use oxygen
