Contact Forces
All objects ________ when a contact force is applied to them.
Bend/ Change Shape
Cups with more of THESE are able to keep liquids inside the cup both hot and cold better.
Walls
The process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food (sugar) and oxygen is called...
Photosynthesis
This is an alternative to Palm Oil that grows in the United States.
Soybean, Canola
Changes in THIS process may be related to why different places have different amounts of water vapor in the atmosphere.
Evaporation.
The amount of the an object can bend before it is permanently deformed.
Elastic Limit
Even when the cup had a lid, the liquid still cooled down and heated up to match the room temperature. Why?
Heat was transferring through the cup wall
Plants can't get their food molecules directly from this source, though it does contain some parts that can be used.
Water
While orangutan populations decrease, populations of these animals actually increase with more palm trees.
Rats, Snakes, Pigs
These 2 gases are increasing in the atmosphere at a high rate and are linked to global warming.
CO2 and Methane.
When an object is moving faster, it has more of this type of energy.
Kinetic
This type of matter has very little space in between the molecules but can still move freely.
Liquid
All plant foods we studied contain these building blocks, though not all plants have the same ones. Examples include carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
Food Molecules
Palm Oil requires these 3 growing conditions.
Lots of sunlight, precipitation, and warm weather.
These 2 gases are released as a result of burning fossil fuels.
Water vapor and CO2
Air Resistence
The process by which water molecules leave a liquid and enter a gaseous form.
Evaporation
These tiny openings on a leaf's surface allow gases like carbon dioxide to enter and exit the plant.
Stomata
This is a way that organisms can interact with each other, although it may mean there is less food for one organism and more for the other.
Competition
What is the natural process that removes CO2 from the atmopshere.
Photosynthesis
3 features that determine how much an object deforms and when it breaks.
Material, Thickness, Shape.
A cup with an airtight lid is a good example of this type of system.
Closed System.
This organelle is where photosynthesis occurs.
Chloroplast
Although there are many individual squirrels in Boston Common, there is not much variety of species there. This is an example of a place with low ____________ .
Biodiversity.
Simply cutting emissions in half won't halve the temperature increase. To reach equilibrium, emissions would need to be cut by how much? (in gigatons)
9 gigatons (+/- 1 gigaton)
