Engineering
Engineers use this item to help them design solutions
What is technology?
The parts of a plant
What is roots, stem, leaves, and flower?
The parts of a wave
What is crest (top of wave), trough (bottom of wave), Amplitude (height of wave) and wavelength (distance of wave)
Energy that causes something to move
What is motion energy?
A river moves rocks downstream
What is erosion?
Criteria means this
External features of an animal means this
What is the "structures outside an animal or organism?"
This is a disturbance that carries energy such as light or sound
What is wave?
Energy that is kept for later use
What is stored energy?
Glaciers grind over rocks and break them
What is weathering?
An example of a constraint would be this
What is time, money, or materials?
For example: I only have $15
The spines on a plant do this
What is protect the plant?
Light cannot pass through this material
What is opaque?
What is sound energy?
Map used to see the height of a mountain range
What is topographic?
Constraint means this
What is "the limits on a solution?"
This system is responsible for breaking down food
What is digestive system?
Light passes through this material
The change of energy from one form to another is called this
What is energy transformation?
This factor will most likely cause weathering and erosion in a rainforest ecosystem
What are animals?
Andrew wants to improve his lunchbox. He could do this to improve the design
Multiple answers to this question. Response could include: make food colder, include a strap so you could carry it like a bag, have a special pocket for water bottles,
The transfer of pollen from one plant to another is called this
What is pollination?
Tessa wants to go outside at night. She should wear this type of clothing when she goes out (Be sure to explain why)
What are light clothes?
Explanation should include that a car's light will reflect better off light clothes which means the car will see her. Remember it is all about light reflection!
Sam pulls back a rubber band and holds it. She lets it go and it flies across the room. The energy transfers and transforms in this way
What is stored to motion energy?
This factor will most likely cause weathering and erosion in a desert ecosystem
What is wind?
