What unit is used for measuring pressure?
Pascals
100
This force is the support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object.
For example, if a book is resting upon a surface, then the surface is exerting an upward force upon the book in order to support the weight of the book.
On occasions, this force is exerted horizontally between two objects that are in contact with each other. For instance, if a person leans against a wall, the wall pushes horizontally on the person.
Normal Force
100
External covering on some animals (examples of animals with these: crabs, lobsters, scorpions, ticks, spiders)
Exoskeleton
100
What does this prefix mean: exo- ?
Outer
100
The amount of matter an object contains, measured in grams
Mass
200
This force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it.
This force often opposes the motion of an object.
For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts this force in the opposite direction of its motion. This force results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely.
Friction

What TWO units of measurement are used for temperature?
Celcius & Kelvin

What does this prefix mean: tri- ?

Internal Bones
Mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, and amphibians have this
Endoskeleton
200
a statement that scientists make that they can test to either prove or disprove in order to explain something they have observed

What does this suffix mean: endo- ?

What does this prefix mean: mono- ?
one
300
Anything that has volume and mass
Matter
400
rate at which velocity changes with time, in terms of both speed and direction
Acceleration
400
The distance around the border of a two-dimensional shape
Perimeter
400
Outer layer of skin
Epidermis
400
A set of genetic information with a low probability of being expressed in an individual (example: if two parents have brown eyes, it is not likely that their child will have blue eyes even if someone in their family line has blue eyes.)
Recessive
400
The ability to do work or cause change
Energy
500
Mass in motion
All objects have mass; so if an object is moving, then it has this - it has its mass in motion.
Momentum
500
This force is the force that is transmitted through a string, rope, cable or wire when it is pulled tight by forces acting from opposite ends.
This force is directed along the length of the wire and pulls equally on the objects on the opposite ends of the wire.
Tension Force

What does this prefix mean: omni- ?
All

What does this prefix mean: zyg- ?
Pair
