Pot Luck
What is thermal energy?
Friction, Light FIre
How is weather different from climate?
Answer: Ocean currents transfer thermal energy from 1 region to another, making some regions warmer or cooler than they would be without the currents.
What is the effect of the gulf stream on climate of North Europe?
The gulf stream carries warm water to Northern Europe, which make the climate of the region warmer.
3 types of rock cycle in order
Cooling and Crystallization, Uplift and Weathering and Erosion.
Moisture that falls from clouds
Precipitation
Compare and contrast the rock cycle and the water cycle.
Neither cycle has a beginning or end to it
Both cycles are affected by other Earth systems
The water cycle describes the hydrosphere
The rock cycle describes the process of a rock
What affects change in a rock?
Answer: Repeated heating and cooling of some rock types can cause rocks to stress and break, resulting in weathering and erosion.
*3 types of rocks
Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic
Explain how ocean currents can affect climate?
Ocean currents transfer thermal energy form 1 region to another , making some regions warmer and cooler then they would be without the currents
3 water cycle thing in order
Evaporation, Condensation and Precipitation
Give an example of how the rock cycle is affected by the biosphere.
Plant roots can break rocks apart.
Where do Metamorphic rocks come from?
Answer: Metamorphic rocks are formed from other rocks that are changed because of heat or pressure.
Give an example of how the rock cycle is affected by the biosphere.
Plant roots can break rocks apart.
The Rock Cycle
- is the series of processes that transport and continually change rocks into different forms
Examples of Thermal Energey
Fire , heat , Friction
Ocean currents
wind blows over the ocean it creates surface current
What is the rock cycle in order?
Answer: Cooling & Crystallizing, Uplift, Weathering & Erosion, Deposition, Compaction & Cementation
How can a rock buried deep within Earth eventually reach the surface?
Uplift is the process that moves large bodies of Earth’s materials to higher elevation.
when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure
Metamorphic rocks form
Gas changed into a liquid
Condensation
How did the seasons affect all of Egyptian society?
Since the economy was largely based on farming and trade, the flood season influenced the prosperity in people.
What is the water cycle in order?
Answer: Evaporation, Transpiration, Respiration, Condensation, & Precipitation
Weathering breaks down rock and forms sediment, which turns into sedimentary rocks
How is weathering part of the rock cycle?
Rocks
change with heat and pressure.
Evaporation
Liquid changes into a gas
