How does Light move?

In straight lines

100

What is an example of conduction?

Touching a hot pan

100

What is precipitation?

Rain, snow, sleet, or hail

100

The theory that the earth is broken into plates and are in motion due to convection currents in the asthenosphere (upper mantle)?

Plate Tectonics

100

The powerhouse of the cell is also known as the

Mitochondria

200

what does transparent mean?

See through lets light through

200

What method of heat transfer heats up the Earth?

Radiation

200

What do we know about temperature and the kinetic energy of particles of matter?

Particles of matter with a higher temperature have more kinetic energy.

200

The boundary between tectonic plates that are sliding past each other horizontally

Transform Boundary

200

The Control Center of the cell is also known as the

Nucleus

300

What is opaque mean?

Non see through does not let light through

300

What is this an example of (ironing clothes)?

Conduction

300

What did we find when we did the soap bubble bottle investigation?

The bubble was sucked into the bottle when it was set in cold water and expanded out when the bottle was put in hot water.

300

The boundary formed by the collision of two plates

Convergent Boundary

300

Which organelle contains the cells DNA

Nucleus

400

What does reflection mean?

light bouncing back off a surface

400

What is thermal energy?

A total amount of kinetic energy in an object

400

Why did the soap bubble expand when we set the bottle in the hot water?

The soap bubble expanded because the hot water heated the air in the bottle and caused the air particles to speed up and spread out.

400

long, narrow depression formed at divergent boundaries

rift valley

400

This organelle is only found in plants

Chloroplast

500

What word means to take in something without giving it back?

Absorb

500

T/F: Heat is transferred from warmer objects to cooler objects?

True

500

What is humidity?

The amount of water vapor in the air.

500

process in which two plates collide and the denser ocean plate descends below the other

subduction

500

This organelle is found in both plant and animal cells

Mitochondria
