Inherited
The facts, figures, or observations gathered during a scientific investigation.
Evidence

The sun
o make an educated guess about what will happen in the future based on past experience.
Predict
When sugar is stirred into water, it seems to disappear, but the mass stays the same. This process is called...
True or False: Technology only refers to things with batteries or screens, like iPads.

Habitat
To look for similarities and differences between two things, like a solid and a liquid.
Compare/Contrast
This is the bending of light as it passes from one material to another, like a straw looking "broken" in water.

The Earth's tilt on its axis
A polar bear’s thick white fur is an example of this—a trait that helps it survive.
Adaptation
The amount of space an object takes up, often measured in milliliters (mL).
Volume
