Weather vs. Climate
Natural Resources
100

These changes usually happen in fall.

Cooler temperatures and shorter daylight hours

100

When water vapor cools and changes into liquid water, this process occurs.

Condensation

100

When sand and dirt are dropped in a new location, this process occurs.

Deposition

100

This describes the condition of the air at a certain place and time.

Weather

100

Wind and sunlight are examples of this type of resource.

Renewable resources

200

Warm temperatures, blooming flowers, and many animals being born describe this season.

Spring

200

Water on the outside of a cold glass comes from water vapor in the air changing into liquid.

Condensation

200

Moving sediment from one place to another is called this process.

Erosion

200

This describes average weather patterns over many years.

Climate

200

Coal, oil, and natural gas are examples of this type of resource.

Nonrenewable resources

300

The pattern of daylight hours becoming longer usually happens during this season.

Spring

300

When liquid water changes into water vapor, this process occurs.

Evaporation

300

This process breaks rocks into smaller pieces.

Weathering

300

To study climate, a student should look at weather data over this length of time.

Many years (at least over 1 year)

300

Water is renewable because it can be replaced through this natural process.

The water cycle

400

This Moon phase comes after a waxing crescent.

First quarter

400

Water is a renewable resource because it can be reused through this repeating process.

The water cycle

400

A river delta forms when sediment slows down and is dropped at the river’s mouth.

Deposition

400

Daily temperature and rainfall describe this.

Weather

400

Coal can produce electricity, but burning it causes this disadvantage.

Pollution

500

The repeating pattern of Moon phases happens because of what movement around Earth? (not orbit)

Revolution

500

In a greenhouse, water droplets forming on the ceiling show gas changing into this state.

Liquid

500

Water, wind, and ice all cause these slow changes to Earth’s surface.

Weathering, erosion, and deposition

500

Average temperature and rainfall over many years describe this.

Climate

500

Turning off lights helps reduce the burning of these fuels.

Fossil fuels
