Weather
The long-term average of atmospheric conditions (typically over 30 years) including temperature, precipitation, and wind.
What is Climate?
Single-celled organisms, including bacteria and archaea, that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
What are Prokaryotic Cells?
This type of succession occurs after a disturbance like a wildfire where soil is still present.
What is secondary succession?
Organisms like grass, shrubs, and trees that make their own food are called this in a food web.
What are Producers/Autotrophs?
F = ma
What is newton's second law/how to calculate force.
Heat-driven cycles in fluids (liquids or gases) caused by density differences, where warmer, less-dense material rises and cooler, denser material sinks.
What is convection currents?
The central, membrane-bound organelle in eukaryotic cells containing genetic material (DNA), acting as the control center for growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
What is the Nucleus?
This term describes the variety of different species living in an ecosystem.
What is Biodiversity?
This type of reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
What is asexual reproduction?
This law explains why a rocket moves upward when gases are pushed downward.
What is Newton’s Third Law?
This type of air mass brings warm, moist weather.
What is Maritime tropical?
What is Cell wall and Chloroplast?
These are the first organisms to grow in an area during primary succession, helping to form soil.
What are pioneer species?
This type of adaptation includes internal processes like producing venom or regulating body temperature.
What is a physiological adaptation?
A car suddenly stops and passengers launch forward. This law explains the motion of the passengers.
What is Newton’s First Law?
This type of front forms when two air masses push against each other but neither advances.
What is stationary front?
These organelles break down nutrients to create energy.
What is the mitochondria?
During primary succession, this change made by pioneer species allows larger plants to eventually grow in the area.
What is the formation of soil from broken rock and organic matter?
In a food web, this type of consumer eats secondary consumers.
What is a tertiary consumer?
If an object’s mass increases while the force stays the same, this happens to its acceleration.
What is it decreases?
At least 80 Degrees, High atmospheric humidity, low vertical wind shear, low pressure, and near the equator
What are the requirements to create a hurricane?
The jelly-like substance filling the cell, housing organelles and providing a site for chemical reactions.
What is cytoplasm?
This type of species has a disproportionately large impact on its ecosystem compared to its population size.
What is a keystone species?
This explains why not all individuals in a population have the same adaptations, even within the same species.
What is variation in traits within a population?
A car travels 150 meters in 10 seconds, then 50 meters in 10 seconds. This is the average speed for the entire trip.
What is 10 m/s?
