This device measures wind direction
What is wind vane?
200
The uppermost layer of the atmosphere
What is exosphere?
200
A boundary that is created when cold air meets an area of warm air
What is a warm front?
200
Clouds are an example of this state of matter
What is gas?
200
water condenses to form clouds and then returns water to the earth with this process
What is precipitation?
200
this important part of the atmosphere absorbs ultra violet light
What is the ozone layer?
300
The ozone layer is found within this cold, dry layer of air
What is stratosphere?
300
Cloudy skies and possible precipitation
What is low pressure?
300
The particles in this state of matter have take a definite shape and volume
What is a solid?
300
The driving force behind the water cycle
What is Sun?
300
Clouds are mostly made of this
What is water/ice crystals?
400
The third layer and coldest layer of the Earth's atmosphere
What is mesosphere?
400
Damaging winds, rain, and possible flooding
What is hurricane?
400
The particles in this state of matter have an indefinite shape, rapidly moving to take the shape of its' container
What is gas?
400
Liquid water becomes water vapor through this process
What is evaporation?
400
This is the primary source of oxygen on this earth
What are plants?
500
The atmosphere is composed of many gases. These two gases are most abundant and make up 99% of the atmosphere's total volume.
What are nitrogen and oxygen?
500
rain, snow, fog, and sleet are known as forms of this
What is precipitation?
500
Explain how water can change from all states of matter.
What is "Water can freeze to change from a liquid to a solid. When the solid is heated, it melts changing back to a liquid. The liquid then evaporates turning into water vapor, which is a gas."
500
Water vapor can turn back into a liquid through this process
