In a food web, this type animal kills and eats other animals, which are considered its prey.
What is a predator?
100
Thermal energy moves from _____ to ______.
What is "from hot to cold?"
100
This is the type of variable that a scientist changes purposefully in their investigation.
What is the Independent Variable?
100
This is the name of Ms. Dole's first born child.
What is Leo?
100
This is the force that pulls us toward the center of the earth.
What is gravity?
200
This molecule is the second ingredient you need to make photosynthesis: 6 water + 6 _________ + Sunlight = glucose and oxygen
What is Carbon Dioxide?
200
When the particles in a solid heat up and begin to vibrate more, the solid becomes a liquid. This process is called _______.
What is melting?
200
These are the two ingredients to a good hypothesis.
What is a prediction and background information?
200
This is the type of energy that comes from the sun.
What is solar energy?
200
This is the unit used to measure a force.
What is a newton?
300
In a food web, the producers get their energy from this type of organism. Mushrooms, fungi, and bacteria are an example.
What is a decomposer?
300
The particles in a solid are more densely packed. Does this make it easier or harder for thermal energy to transfer through the solid?
Easier!
300
The phrases "as the IV increases, the DV decreases" and "as the number of days in the sun increases, the height the plant grows also increases," are both examples of this.
What is a trend?
300
When it is winter in Canada, this is the season you would expect it to be in Australia.
What is summer?
300
This is the force that occurs on one object moves against another. On ice, there is not a lot of this. On sand paper, there is more.
What is friction?
400
The "DJ" in Mosa Mack's Photosynthesis Song, this is the cell part that allows photosynthesis to happen.
What is the chloroplast?
400
If Ms. Dole is trying to keep baby Leo warm, she should make a onesie out of wool, because wool is a good insulator. What is the reason that wool is considered to be a good insulator?
What is because it is not densely packed so the heat gets trapped among the fibers, making it more difficult for the heat to escape!
400
This is the kind of graph you should use if your independent variable is in categories.
What is a bar graph?
400
The earth has seasons because of this.
What is the earth's tilt OR the angle of sunlight as it hits the earth?
400
A car is at the top of a rollercoaster, it is not moving. In this scenario, its _______________________ is low, and its _________________________ is high.
What is kinetic energy and potential energy, in that order.
500
This is the reason that most arrows in a food web point upwards, going from the prey to the predators.
What is to show the direction of energy and nutrients?
500
This is the process exemplified by dry ice, in which a solid turns directly into a gas when it is heated up.
What is sublimation?
500
Identify the IV, DV, and at least 2 CVs in the scenario below: Johnny designs an experiment to test the questions: “Which type of car can go the fastest?” He sets up his experiment by getting 4 types of cars: a Ferrari, a Subaru, a Honda, and a Chevy. He uses the same driver for each car, the same amount of gas. Then, he measures how fast the cars can drive 1 mile.
IV: type of car DV: speed the car travels CV: same driver CV: same amount of gas CV: same distance the car is driven

Name two nonrenewable energy resources.
What is oil and coal?
500
This is the principle of motion that states: an object in motion will stay in motion unless a force acts upon it AND an object at rest will stay at rest unless a force acts upon it.
What is inertia.
