Life Science and Biology
What are the basic units of life because they is the smallest part of a living thing?
cells
someone who solves problems by using science, math, and/or technology
engineer
glass of milk, a cup of water, and honey are all examples of these, take the container of whatever you put it in
liquids
water that falls from clouds to Earth’s surface. Examples of this include snow, rain, sleet, and hail
precipitation
a scientist uses the scientific _______ during an inquiry; anyone can use this to search for the answers to a question
method
animals or organisms that break down dead animals
decomposers
someone who designs new ways to use electrical power to improve products
electrical engineer
anything that takes up space. It is made up of tiny particles
matter
made up of all the air in and around Earth, contains the oxygen we breathe
atmosphere
the third step of the scientific method, an educated guess
hypothesis
only found in a plant cell, this is where photosynthesis occurs
chloroplasts
The first step of the engineering process
defining the problem
have a definite (or exact) shape and volume. The particles are tightly packed and move very slow
solids
animals that make their own light in a chemical process; they live in the deep zone
bioluminescence
the final step in the scientific method; analyze the data from the experiment and decide whether the hypothesis was proven true or false
conclusion
body system that provides internal and external movement for an animal
muscular system
an early sample or model of a model built to test a concept
prototype
a combination of two or more different substances. The substances do not change their identity; and the parts can typically be separated
mixture
anything from nature that people can use. It can be renewable or nonrenewable
natural resource
included in the fourth step of the scientific method, this is a step by step process of what to do to complete the experiment
Procedure
includes two subsystems: the cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular system includes the heart and the blood
circulatory system
someone who designs and manages larger structures such as bridges, buildings, and tunnels
civil engineer
the ability of one substance to dissolve into another
solubility
a term that means to break down naturally
biodegradable
the second step of the scientific method involves this; the scientist gathers as much information from different resources
research
