Gonna Go With This
100
Define Non-Renewable Resource, including the two characteristics associated.
Non-renewable resource: A material from Earth that can NOT b easily or quickly replenished.
- Can be used up
- Can NOT be replaced.

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
Explain to me how Solar Power works. :)
The suns energy is captured using technology, such as PV cells. The energy from the sun is collected using the PV cells and stored to use as energy.
100
Explain to me how Coal energy works
Coal is burned to generate steam, the steam spins a turbine that generates energy.
100
Define Ore and tell me how this natural resource is formed.
Ore: Rock that contains economically valuable concentrations of metal or other minerals
Formed by Tectonic Plates
100
TRUE or FALSE: An increase in population means an increase in the amount of resources needed.
TRUE
200
***DOUBLE JEOPARDY**
Define Renewable Resource, including the two characteristics associated!
Renewable Resource: Materials from Earth that can be replenished by natural process with our lifetime.
- Can NOT be used up
- They can be replaced
200
Define Groundwater and Aquifer
Groundwater: Water found underground in the spaces and cracks within Earth materials
Aquifer: rock that contain large amounts of trapped groundwater

In your opinion, what is the best non-renewable energy source to use? Why do you think that?
Ms. Marcus will access responses.
200
Are Natural Resources evenly distributed around the world? Why or why not?
Resources are not evenly distributed around the world because they are formed from Geological processes.
200
**DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
What are the TWO locations in the world with the highest consumption of both renewable and non-renewable energy sources?
China and USA
300
Define the below TWO words
Geological Process and Tectonic Plates
Geological Processes: Earth actions that form and shape the Earths constantly changing surface.
Tectonic Plates: Large sections of Earth's surface (lithosphere) that are in constant motion

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
Choose ONE renewable energy source. Give me a definition, tell me an advantage and disadvantage of this energy source.
Ms. Marcus will approve. :) muahah

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY**
Choose ONE NON-RENEWABLE energy source. Give me a definition , tell me an advantage and disadvantage of this energy source .
Ms. Marcus will approve

Natural resources are formed from.... Be Specific!
Geological Processes!
Tectonic plates and Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition.
300
**DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
Explain the relationship between the THREE BELOW WORDS.
Environmental Impact
Population Growth
Natural Resource
Population growth has an environment impact because we need to use more natural resources to meet the needs of our growing population.
An increase in natural resources effects our environment because we are taking more resources from our environment and potentially harming the environment by doing so. For example, some freshwater seas are now bone dry because of using all the freshwater to feed crops needed to sustain our growing population.

**DOUBLE JEOPARDY**
1.) Define Fossil Fuel.
2.) What are the fossil fuels?
3.)What Geological process forms them?
Fossil Fuel: A fuel produced by living plant/animal materials that have been buried and changed by heat and pressure under layers over millions of years of time.
Coal, crude oil, natural gas.
Weathering, erosion, and deposition.
