This type of wave requires a medium to travel through and consists of compressions and rarefactions.

Sound wave

100

This term refers to a process where substances are transformed into new substances with different properties.

Chemical reaction

This is the Earths outermost layer.

Crust

200

These blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body.

Red Blood Cells

200

Organisms that make their own food, such as plants and algae in a food chain/web

Producers

200

These waves move perpendicular to the direction of the energy transfer, such as light or water waves.
