This organ pumps blood around the body, taking oxygen to the necessary areas.
What is the heart?
This state of matter has a “fixed” shape and a volume, like ice and a rock.
What is a solid?
This type of energy allows us to see objects and travels extremely fast through space.
What is light energy?
This object is at the center of our solar system and provides Earth with light and heat.
What is the Sun?
This law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
What is Newton’s Third Law of Motion?
These organelles are responsible for cellular respiration.
What are mitochondria?
Water (H₂O) is an example of this because it is made of two or more different elements bonded together.
What is a compound/molecule?
This force pulls objects toward Earth and keeps planets in orbit around the Sun..
What is gravity?
This natural object orbits Earth and changes shape in the sky as it goes through its phases. In our solar system, some planets have many of these, while others have none at all.(e.g. Jupiter has 95 of them!)
What is the moon?
This theory proposes that through natural selection the traits that are the most fit get passed down.
What is the theory of evolution?
This is the only thing that naturally appears as all 3 states of matter on Earth.
What is the water?
This subatomic particle has a positive charge and is found in the nucleus of an atom.
What is a proton?
This quantity describes how fast an object is moving and in what direction.
What is velocity?
This region of the solar system, located between Mars and Jupiter, contains many rocky objects left over from the formation of the planets.
What is the asteroid belt?
This law states that matter cannot be created or destroyed.
What is the law of conservation of mass?
These specialized proteins act as biological catalysts.
What is an enzyme?
This element, atomic number 8, is essential for respiration, and it is all around us.
What is Oxygen?
This law states that force equals mass times acceleration.
What is Newton’s Second Law of Motion?
This type of star explosion briefly becomes brighter than an entire galaxy and helps spread heavy elements throughout space.
What is a supernova?
This law states that the total entropy (disorder) of an isolated system always increases over time.
What is the 2nd law of thermodynamics?
Represented by the letters A, T/U, C and G, they are essential components of nucleotides, which link together to form DNA/RNA strands.
What are Nitrogenous Bases?
The process where particles move from an area where there are more particles to an area with fewer particles, until they are evenly spread out.
Example:
A drop of food coloring is placed into a cup of still water. Without stirring, the color slowly spreads out until the water is evenly colored everywhere.
What is diffusion?
This principle explains why time slows down for objects moving at speeds close to the speed of light and why mass and energy are interchangeable, as shown in the equation E = mc²
What is Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity?
This planet is often called “Earth’s twin” because it is similar in size, but its climate is extremely different. It is hot enough to melt lead, with thick clouds that trap heat and make the surface dangerous for life.
What is Venus?
This theory proposes that objects in motion will change depending on the onlookers location and movement.
