π§What is fluorescence π
Fluorescence is the emission of visible light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation (UV radiation)
What is the name of this structure and what is the flaming bright orange stuff being expelled from this structure? : π
a volcano
Larva
πβ¨What is the sun considered to earth. Specifically plants. ( Hint has to do with what it emits/gives)πβ¨
A primary source of energy.
π What is an earthquake π
An earthquake is the shaking of the Earth's surface caused by the sudden movement of rocks ( tectonic plates deep underground.
UV stands for?π
Ultraviolet radiation
What does it mean when they safe a volcano is dormant.
A dormant volcano is a volcano that has not erupted for a long time but could erupt again in the future. It is "sleeping"
π»πΌA cow is a primary consumer and a plant is a....... π±β¨
Primary producer
π True or false π
persons should stop drop and roll when an earthquake is occuring.
False, persons should drop, cover and hold.
If no cover is available, protect your head and crouch near an interior wall away from windows and heavy objects.
What is it that gets excited in materials that causes the exhibition of fluorescence ? ππ
Electrons
πͺ¨ What is formed when molten larva cools and hardens? π₯π₯
Hint: obsidian
When lava dries and cools, it hardens into igneous rock. The type of rock formed depends on how fast the lava cools:
Basalt β Forms when lava cools quickly on the surface; common in oceanic crust.
Obsidian β A smooth, glassy rock that forms when lava cools very rapidly.
What is an omnivoreπ
An organism that consumes both plants and animals.
π€ What is the Richter scale βοΈ?
The Richter scale is a system that measures the strength (magnitude) of an earthquake.
π‘οΈName a fluorescent type of rock/ substance π‘οΈ
Yooperlite
Sodalite
Fluorite
How can volcanoes negatively affect the the environment?? π
Volcanoes can harm the environment in several ways. They release toxic gases like sulfur dioxide, which can cause acid rain and air pollution.
Ash clouds can block sunlight, affecting weather and plant growth. Lava flows destroy homes, forests.
Volcanic eruptions can also trigger tsunamis and contaminate water sources with ash and chemicals.
Why are producers important in an ecosystem?π€π€π€π€π€π€
Producers are important because they make their own food using sunlight (photosynthesis) and provide energy for all other organisms in the food chain. Without them, consumers of plants wouldnβt have food and hence they'll die leading to the consumers of the consumers dying ultimately disrupting the ecosystem.
What is a transform plate tectonic boundary?
Hint ( has to deal with direction and causing earthquakes)
These are plates slide past each other, causing earthquakes.
Explain the steps of how an object emits visible light π§βπΎπ§βπΎ
UV light hits object
Electrons get excited and jump to a higher energy level.
Electrons can't hold energy because they're energetically unstable as they jump up an energy level.
They release energy in the form of visible light, returning to the energy level they came from
What is the relationship between plate tectonics and volcanoes? π§
Volcanoes form because of plate tectonics
When plates collide one sinks and melts, creating magma
When plates separate, magma rises to fill the gap (mid-ocean ridges) And can push to the surface of the land in the form of larva.
π₯ΈWhy is only about 10% of energy transferred from the gazelle trophic level to the lion's trophic level.π¬
Because the gazelle uses most of its energy for movement, body functions( respiration ), and even looses some energy as heat. The lion only gets the small amount left when it eats the gazelle.
π π π π π How can earthquakes trigger tsunamis?
An earthquake can trigger a tsunami if it happens under the ocean and causes the seafloor to suddenly rise or fall.
This displaces water, creating powerful waves that spread across the ocean and can flood coastal areas.
