Constructive and destructive
What does constructive mean
Processes that create landforms (deposition, landslides, volcanic eruptions,
floods
what is matter
Anything that has mass and takes up space
What kind of electricity is caused by friction
Static Electricity is caused by friction
what is an vertebrates
A vertebrates is an animal that has a backbone
what are some inherited traits
Eye color
o Skin color
o Hair color
o Curly or straight hair
o Dimples
o Freckles
o Height
what does destructive mean
Processes that destroy landforms (weathering, erosion, landslides, volcanic
eruptions, earthquakes, floods) Natural processes that can affect Earth’s oceans and land
what is mass
The amount of matter in an object.
Measured in grams, kilograms
How are charged particles in matter affected when two objects
are rubbed together
Rubbing two objects together may cause some of
the negative charges to rub off one object
what is a amphibians
Amphibians are born in the water. When they are born, they
breath with gills like a fish. But when they grow up, they develop
lungs and can live on land
Can you think of any animal instincts
Some animals head for warmer climates during the winter. Other
animals find a safe spot and curl up for a long sleep
What does weathering mean
Weathering is a term used to describe processes that break down rocks at or
near the surface of the earth. Weathering can be either physical or chemical. These
processes cause the surface of the earth to dissolve, decompose, and break into smaller
pieces
what is volume
The amount of space an object takes up.
Measured in milliliters and liters
on Earth.
How is current electricity produced
Current electricity is produced when negative charges move along a
path
what is a reptiles
Reptiles are a class of animal with scaly skin. They are cold
blooded and are born on land. Snakes, lizards, crocodiles,
alligators and turtles all belong to the reptile class
what does inherited mean
A physical characteristic that
is passed from a parent to their baby (offspring) is an inherited trait
what does erosion mean
Erosion is the movement of sediments and soil by wind, water, ice, and gravity
Describe how particles of
matter are arranged in a solid
Particles are tightly packed together. They
can vibrate, but cannot move out of
position.
What is a circuit? What are the parts of a circuit
A circuit is the path along which negative charges move
what is a mammal
People are mammals. So are dogs, cats, horses, duckbill
platypuses, kangaroos, dolphins and whales. If an animal drinks
milk when it is a baby and has hair on its body, it belongs to the
mammal class
what does Acquired mean
a mix of characteristics from their parents
and behaviors they learned on their own
what does deposition mean
Deposition is the dropping, or depositing, of sediments by water, wind, or ice. It builds
new land on Earth’s surface, like a delta at the end of a river or the pile up of a sand dune
in the desert. Shells on the beach are deposition by ocean waves. Deposition begins with
a “D” and Dunes and Deltas begin with a “D”.
What are physical properties?
What are examples of physical
properties
Properties that can be observed using your
senses.
Color, shape, size, texture, function,
density, state of matter
Explain the difference between the two poles of a magnet
The ends of a magnet are called the poles. A magnetic field is
strongest at the poles. A magnet has two poles - a north pole and a
south pole. The poles are equal in strength
what is an invertebrates
There are also a lot of animals without
backbones. These are called invertebrates
yes because a animal gets it's fur from it's parents.
