                 SEVERAL YEARS

        (yields more data. more data is always better)

200



                     DEFINE A THEORY


THEORY- explains or answers WHY events occur

             - repeated tests

200


         EXPLAIN      MALLEABILITY



    METAL- can be molded or deformed into different                                 shapes

SKIN, AROUND INTERNAL ORGANS, BETWEEN MUSCLE, INSIDE BONE MARROW, and BREAST

200

                    TRUE or FALSE

Jupiter and Earth both have one moon that revolves               around the planet at the same speed.

  

FALSE-- Earth has one moon

            Jupiter has over 95 moons

         LAWS- explains HOW thing occur

          (usually a mathematical statement)

300


              EXPLAIN    DUCTILE


   METAL- can be  HAMMERED,  STRETCHED  or                                       DRAWN-OUT into  a thin wire

300


What organisms are described as 

                      a. AUTOTROPHES

                     b. HETEROTROPHES


    PLANTS (PRODUCERS)-AUTOTROPHES

HUMANS (TERTIARY CONSUMERS)-eats both

                     plants and  animals)

300

Order the following wavelengths from LONGEST to SHORTEST in the electromagnetic spectrum?


RED         VIOLET           ULTRA VIOLET     INFRARED


infrared >  red light >  violet light >  ultraviolet

300

   Which surface heats up faster 

            LAND or WATER

Explain why (particles arrangements)

  Land heats up faster because its particles are arranged like a solid, very tightly compacted

400

The process of hot air rising above cold air

is called ________________________

             

                       CONVECTION

400
