What is the difference between a law and a theory?
A law is something that is definitely proven to be true. A theory, although backed by scientific evidence, is not definitely proven to be true.

(From group 9)

What are the layers of earth from outer to inner?
crust, mantle, outer core, inner core.

(from group 5)

What is the continental drift theory?
The theory that all of the continents used to be one supercontinent called Pangaea.

What is the difference between a food chain and a food web?
FOOD CHAIN IS ONE SEQUENCE OF ANIMAL DIET AND FOOD WEB IS VARIOUS SEQUENCES OF ANIMAL DIET (more than one food chain combined)

What is the name of the relationship in which both organisms benefit?
mutualism

What are the 3 arguments that support continental drift?
1. continents fit together like a puzzle
2. fossils of the same species are found on different continents
3. fossils of organisms are found in places they could never survive

What travels through a food chain or web?
energy

what is the difference between objective and subjective?
objective is stating something that is definitely true and subjective is someone thoughts or feelings.

What is the layer of Earth that includes the crust and the outermost part of the mantle?
lithosphere

What is the difference between convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries?
convergent = plates collide
divergent = plage divise
transform = plates slide past each other horizontally

What is the difference between parasitism and predation?
In both parasitism and predation, one organism benefits and one suffers.
Parasitism = one benefits and one is hurt
Predation = a predator hunts and eats its prey; one benefits and the other dies.

What is the dependent variable?
The observed variable in an experiment that changes are determined by the presence or degree of one or more independent variables.

Which type of rock are these the characteristics of?

fairly easy to break apart, usually contains fossils you can see different kinds of rocks inside rough edged
sedimentary rock

What is the difference between convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries?
convergent = plates collide
divergent = plage divise
transform = plates slide past each other horizontally

Explain carbon dating.
The process by which scientists study the age of an organic substance by measuring the amount of Carbon-14 left with the amount of Carbon-12 in the material.
500
At which type of plate boundary can a subduction zone occur?
convergent

Explain the process of photosynthesis using the following words: carbon dioxide, oxygen, glucose, sugar, energy, sun, and water.
In the process of Photosynthesis, plants absorb energy from the sun, water, and carbon dioxide. They create a sugar called glucose, and release oxygen as a byproduct.

What is a limitation of using a scientific model?
Since it is not the same thing, you will not always get the same results as you would in real life.
