Earth Science
This element is often mistaken for gold
What is pyrite?
The powerhouse of the cell
What is the Mitochondria?
An object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an opposing force
What is Newton's First Law?
Two molecules of hydrogen, one molecule of oxygen
What is water?
A satellite that orbits a planet.
What is a moon?
The second waves of an earthquake
What are aftershocks?
Plant cells have this extra layer around them
What is the cell wall?
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
What is Newton's 3rd law?
A negative charge in an atom
What is an electron?
A large planet composed mostly of gas with a small core
What is a gas giant?
The study of rocks and minerals
What is Geology?
This double helix structure contains all the genetic information of the cell
What is DNA?
Energy equals mass times the speed of light in a vacuum squared
What is the theory of relativity?
The elemental building block of life on Earth
What is Carbon?
Circumstellar disc in the outer Solar System, extending from the orbit of Neptune (at 30 AU) to approximately 50 AU from the Sun. It is similar to the asteroid belt, but is far larger – 20 times as wide and 20–200 times as massive.
What is the Kuiper Belt?
This mineral is created from dead plants and extreme heat and pressure over millions of years
What is coal?
A member of a large group of unicellular microorganisms which have cell walls but lack organelles and an organized nucleus, including some that can cause disease.
What is Bacteria?
Mechanisms composed by wheel and rope used to lift heavy objects onto tall heights. They change the direction of an applied force and they can even reduce the force needed to lift a weight.
What is a pully?
A chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons
What is a covalent bond?
A celestial body that -orbits the sun, has enough mass to assume a nearly round shape, has not cleared the neighborhood around its orbit and is not a moon
What is a dwarf planet?
This is the layering of earth over millions of years
What is sedimentation?
Near-microscopic animals with long, plump bodies and scrunched-up heads. They have eight legs, and hands with four to eight claws on each. While strangely cute, these tiny animals are almost indestructible and can even survive in outer space.
What are Tardigrades? (Water Bears)
The point on which a lever rests or is supported and on which it pivots.
What is a fulcrum?
A process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction.
What is a chemical reaction?
A place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.
What is a Black Hole?
