What is the difference between a consumer and producer

consumers eat other organisms

producers make their own food by photosynthesis


200

the nucleus is the __________ of the cell

control center / principal

200

like poles ________ and

opposite poles __________

200

Kinetic energy is ___________________

kinetic energy is the energy of motion 

300

The smallest unit of living things

cells

300

What does a decomposer do?

decomposers recycle nutrients and matter back into the ecosystem by breaking down living things

300

What 2 parts does a plant cell have that animal cells do not have. 

cell wall and chloroplasts

300

The magnetic field in a magnet is strongest at the _________

poles

300

What does The Law of Conservation of Energy say:

energy cannot be created not destroyed

energy can only transfer to other objects or

transform into a different type of energy



400

What does the mitochondria do?

breaks down glucose to release energy in the cell

400

what is photosynthesis

photosynthesis is the process in which plants turn sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose (sugar). In this process plants also release oxygen

400

what is the cytoplasm, what does it do for a cell?

the cytoplasm is a gel-like substance that fills the inside of a cell. It transports nutrients inside the cell and keeps the other structures in place inside the cell.

Explain the difference between a temporary magnet and a permanent magnet

permanent magnets always hold their magnetic force while temporary magnets only become magnetic when around a real magnet

400

potential energy is ____________________

potential energy is stored energy.

an object has potential energy from its position, condition or chemical composition.

500

the parts of a cell are called

organelles


500

what is the difference between a food chain and a food web?


500

explain the relationship between the chloroplast and the mitochondria

chloroplasts make glucose and the mitochondria breaks it down to release energy

500

Why is the nickel coin not magnetic?

although nickel is highly magnetic, the nickel coin is not magnetic because it is primarily made of copper not pure nickel
500

Can an object have potential and kinetic energy at the same time? explain your reasoning.

Yes an object can have both potential and kinetic energy. Think of going down a roller coaster. In the middle of the downhill you have some kinetic energy from moving. You also have potential energy from your position / height / gravity.
