The study of organic compounds. 

What is a ORGANIC CHEMISTRY?

100

mixtures of hydrocarbons that formed from the remains of plants or animals. 

What are FOSSIL FUELS?

100

all of these compounds contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

What are BIOCHEMICAL COMPOUNDS?

100

This combines the study of physics and biology to examine systems of living things. 

What is BIOPHYSICS OR BIOLOGICAL PHYSICS?

100

this is the world's fastest land animal, capable of reaching speeds of up to 70 mph.

What are CHEETAHS?

200
diamond, graphite, and fullerenes.

What are FORMS OF CARBON?

200

coal, natural gas, and petroleum

What are THE THREE MAIN TYPES OF FOSSIL FUELS?

200

carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.

What are the classes of biochemical compounds? 

200

This simple machine works by converting potential energy into kinetic energy, then kinetic energy into potential energy over and over again. 

What is a SWING?

200

This burns cleaner, less soot than coal, making it a desirable fuel.

What are is NATURAL GAS?

300

compounds that contain only carbon and hydrogen.

What are HYDROCARBONS?

300

to release energy used to power cars, cook food, and heat buildings.

Why do we burn fossil fuels?

300

All living thigs need energy and they get this energy through this.

What are CHEMICAL REACTIONS?

300
Because of this law of physics, you will feel a rollercoaster car jerk and pull as you are pressed into the seat through the turns.

What is INERTIA?

300
This energy molecule is composed of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms. 

What is a GLUCOSE MOLECULE?

400
a straight line, a branched chain, or a ring. 

How can carbon atoms be arranged?

400

this causes hot air balloons to rise by convection.

What is the energy from propane combustion?

400

These are some of the most important biochemical reactions involved in making food. 

What are PHOTOSYNTHESIS, AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION (releasing energy from food.)

400

When THIS force is greater than the force of gravity, an airplane is able to fly. 

What is LIFT.

400

found in citrus fruits, this is needed by your body for healthy and growth.

What is VITAMIN C?

500

Butane and isobutane are examples of these.

What are isomers?

500
if inhaled, this clear, odorless gas can be absorbed by the blood and prevent the blood cell from carrying oxygen throughout the body. 

What is CARBON MONOXIDE?

500

Without these, our bodies would not break down the food we eat. 

What are ENZYMES?

500

knowing the work of THIS force, a forensic engineer can make a good estimate of a car's speed before the driver hit the breaks.

What is FRICTION?

500

Global Positioning Systems can accurately direct you to any location using THESE.

What are SATELLITES?
