This can grow from a plant and break apart rocks.
What is a root?
100
A device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
What is an electric motor?
100
The energy that moves between objects of different temperatures.
What is heat?
100
This is a type of resource that comes back again and again.
What is a renewable resource?
100
This landform has a fault line.
What is an earthquake?
200
This huge body of ice moved over land in Indiana and carved giant lakes about 20,000 years ago.
What is a glacier?
200
One path for electric charges to follow. If any part of the path is broken, the circuit is open
What is a series circuit?
200
The transfer of heat between two objects that are touching.
What is conduction?
200
Coal, oil, and natural gasses are this.
What is a fossil fuel?
200
This event can occur due to gravity and flowing water.
What is a landslide?
300
The process in which wind, water, ice, or gravity move weathered rock and soil from one place to another.
What is erosion?
300
When one part of the cicuit breaks, the charges can still flow along other parts.
What is a parallel circuit?
300
A resource that cannot come back.
What is a nonrenewable resource?
300
The point directly where the earthquake begins.
What is the epicenter?
400
The dropping of weathered rock by wind or moving water.
What is deposition?
400
A material that resists the flow of energy.
What is an insulator?
400
The transfer of heat within a liquid or gas.
What is convection?
400
Using materials over again.
What is recycling?
400
This is what happens when lava cools.
What is hardens?
500
Bits of sand and silt at the bottom of a delta.
What is sediment?
500
A material that readily allows electric charges to pass through.
What is a conductor?
500
The transfer of heat without matter to carry it.
What is radiation?
500
The wise use of natural resources is also known as this.
What is conservation?
