LIFE SCIENCE
Living things that can make their own food using sunlight are called
PRODUCERS
A missing card from Josh's science fair board was found on the floor of his bedroom. The card read, "After reviewing the data, it is clear that light-colored liquids freeze quicker than dark-colored liquids."
Which part of the scientific method does the information represent?
Inference
The closest star to Earth is the
SUN
The ability to do work or cause change is called
ENERGY
The amount of SPACE that matter takes up is called
VOLUME
The process by which plants turn sunlight into food is called
What is the first step in the scientific process?
Asking a question
The force that keeps us on the ground is called
GRAVITY
When light bounces off a surface, it is called
REFLECTION
the measure of how much matter is in an object
MASS
An animal that eats only plants is called a
HERBIVORE
If your results do not match your hypothesis, what should you do?
Think about why and try again!
Which planet is known as the "Red Planet"?
MARS
What happens to the particles in a solid when it turns into a liquid?
THEY MOVE FARTHER APART
Which property describes how a substance feels to the touch?
TEXTURE
The place where an organism lives and gets what it needs to survive is called its
HABITAT
Which tools help scientists measure length?
RULER
Which phase comes after a new moon?
Waxing crescent
Give an example of energy changing from one form to another that you have seen at home or school
When you turn on a lamp, electrical energy changes into light energy and thermal (heat) energy
Explain the difference between mass and volume.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while volume is the amount of space the object takes up.
Explain why producers are important in a food chain
Producers are important in a food chain BECAUSE they make their own food from SUNLIGHT and provide energy for all other living things in the chain.
During an experiment, the step where you collect and record information is called
DATA
Describe one way you can observe changes in the sky during the day or night.
One way to observe changes in the sky is to watch how the position of the Sun changes during the day or to notice how the Moon and stars appear at night.
Explain how a shadow is formed when you stand in sunlight
A shadow is formed when an object blocks the path of light, causing a dark shape to appear behind the object
Give one example of a physical property and describe how it can be observed
Color is a physical property. It can be observed by looking at the object to see what color it appears.
