Rock transformation
The three types of rocks are
What are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic
The total energy of all the moving particle (atoms and molecules in a substance)
What is thermal energy
Two plates that move together
What is a convergent plate boundary
What is adaptation
What is a common ancestor
Type of rocks form from the cooling of lava/magma
What is an igneous rock
There are the three states of matter
What is a solid, liquid and gas
Scientists that study plant and animal fossils
Who are paleontologists
the process where living things use their traits to help them survive and reproduce and are more likely to live long enough to have babies, so those helpful traits become common over time
What is natural selection
A body part that used to be useful to ancestor but know has little to no function
What is vestigial structure
Type of rock is formed from compaction and cementation
What is a sedimentary rock
The transfer of heat through moving fluids
When two plates move apart
What is a divergent plate boundary
characteristics or features of living things that are passed down from parents to their offspring.
What is a trait
The change in living things over long periods of time
What is evolution
The two types of igneous rocks are
What are extrusive and intrusive rocks
The transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, no contact needed
What is radiation
The part of the earth we walk on, build on, and where we find things like water, soil, and minerals
What is the lithosphere
as one thing increases, the other also increases(or both decrease).
What is a direct relationship
The process by which a living organism grows and develops from a fertilized egg into a fully formed embryo, and eventually into a complete organism
What is embryological development
Fossils are found in
What are sedimentary rocks
When two objects that touch reach the same temperature and no more heat between the objects
What is thermal equilibrium
What is plate motion
one change affects another through a middle step
What is an indirect relationship
Fossils that appear in many thick layers (covering a long time span) are considered "long-lived"
What is an index fossil
