Science and Technology
this type of observation deals with numbers, or amounts. (example: humans have 28 teeth or the chicken layed 2 eggs)
What is a quantitative observation?
this is the smallest and basic unit of structure and function in organisms. (You are made of trillions of these)
What are cells?
a group of ecosystems with similar climates and organisms (there are 6 of these) (you made a diorama of one of these)
What is a biome?
this is the giant explosion that happens at the end of a stars life before it becomes a giant or a supergiant
what is a supernova?
this is the largest organ in the human body
what is the skin?
this is when you make a claim or statement about what will happen in the future based on your experiences or evidence.
What is a prediction?
this is the balance of internal conditions despite external conditions. (when body temperature stays constant even when it is hot or cold outside)
What is homeostasis?
these are behaviors and physical characteristics that allow organisms to live successfully in their environment. (example: camels can hold water in their humps)
what is an adaptation?
this is when an object passes between the sun and something else (the moon passes between the sun and the earth or when the earth passes between the sun and the moon)
what is an eclipse?
this is the process of a tadpole transforming into a frog
what is metamorphosis?
these are facts, figures, and other evidence you gather through observations and experiments.
What is data?
a substance introduced to the body to help produce chemicals that destroy specific viruses
what is a vaccine?
this is a series of events in which one organism eats another and obtains energy
What is a food chain?
this is the name of the smooth flat parts of the moon without any craters that were once seas of lava.
what are maria?
this is the one thing that all living things need to survive
what is water?
this is a negative consequence or result of taking or not taking an action.
what is a cost?
this is an organism (usually bacteria) that breaks down living organisms after they have died and recycles its chemicals
What is a decomposer?
this is when liquid water absorbs energy and changes to a gas (it rises to the clouds in this part of the water cycle)
What is evaporation?
the cool parts on the surface of the sun that appear darker
what are sunspots?
this is the chemical symbol for water
what is H2O?
this is the study of living things
what is life science?
this is the green pigment found in plants
What is chlorophyll? or What is Chloroplasts?
this is an organism that is carried into a new location by people and disrupts the food chain
what is an exotic species?
when gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape
this is the prestigious award given for achievements in physics, chemistry, and medicine.
What is the nobel prize?
