100

The moving of sediments from one location to another

Erosion

100

The temperature where something starts to boil

Boiling point

100

This state of matter has definite shape and volume

Solid

100

What form of heat transfer is this?


Radiation

100

Variables that stay the same in an experiment

Control Variables

200

A plate boundary that makes ridges and valleys 

Divergent

200

The amount of space something takes up

Volume

200

A substance that is slippery and has a pH of 10

Base

200

When the particles in a solid start moving more and spreading out

Melting

200

On the EM Spectrum, has the longest wavelength

Radio Waves

300

In this step of the rock cycle sediment fuse together to make one solid rock

Cementation

300

When a wave bends as it passes through a medium

Refraction

300

A substance that looks the same throughout but can easily be separated. Example: Soda

Homogenous Mixture

300

This type of energy is stored in compounds. Example: Battery

Chemical

300

Gives teh exact age of rock based on radioactive material and carbon dating (how old the elements in the rock are)

Absolute Dating

400

This Law states that older rock are farther down

Law of Superposition

400

How well something can transfer electricity or heat

Conductivity

400

On the periodic table they are brittle and shiny.

Metalloids

400

Energy based on the total kinetic energy of all particles in a substance

Thermal/Heat Energy

400

States that all cells come from other living cells

Cell Theory

500

When colliding this type of plate goes under because it has more density

Oceanic

500

How readily a substance reacts with another substance

Reactivity

500

When atoms are chemically combined

Molecule

500

Parts of a watch that could move

Potential Mechanical Energy

500

For physical appearance, rarely shows up and represented by lowercase letters. Example: mm
