Life Science
These are the basic building blocks of all living things
What are Cells?
The continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection
What is the water cycle
The ability to do work or cause change
What is energy
these cells carry oxygen through the body
A group of similar cells working together to perform a specific function
What is tissue
This green pigment in plant cells captures energy from sunlight
What is Chlorophyll
What are renewable and nonrenewable
Anything that takes up space and has mass
The variable that is measured or observed during an experiment
What is a dependent variable
The ability of an organism to keep its internal conditions stable, even when the external environments change
What is homeostasis
This organelle is known as the powerhouse of the cell
What is the mitochondrion
The layer of gases surrounding the earth
What is the atmosphere
The transfer of heat by the movement of fluids like air or water
What is convection
These types of cells have a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles, and they make up plants, animals, fungi, and protists
what are eukaryotes
this organ uses hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes to break down food into liquid form
what is the stomach
Plants use this process to make their own food using, sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide
What is photosynthesis
These are the four main layers of the geosphere
What are crust, mantle, outer core, inner core
A material that allows heat and electricity to flow through it
In biological classification, this taxonomic level comes below kingdom and groups organisms based on major body plans or characteristics
What is phylum
The movement of water through a plant from roots to leaves
What is transpiration
These structures in plant cells store water, nutrients, and waste and are much larger in plant cells than animal cells
What are vacuoles
These fast moving tunnels of air in the atmosphere that influence weather and travel patterns
What are jet streams
This type of energy is stored in an object due to its position or condition, like a rock on top of a hill.
what is potential energy
This part of the digestive system produces bile, which helps break down fats during digestion
What is the liver
This layer of Earth's atmosphere is where temperatures drop dramatically, making it the coldest part of the atmosphere, around 50km above Earth's surface
What is the mesosphere
