What is _________?
To study the water cycle, students add ice cubes to a glass of water. Ten minutes later they observe the glass. On the outside of the glass, students see drops of water. Explain what is observed.
What is water vapor has become liquid water? The water vapor around the glass was cooled and formed tiny water droplets that run down the glass as water.
Give 2 examples of how light energy is used in a kitchen.
What is ______ and ______?
Layers of sand and dead plants over millions of years create a compaction and cementation of sediments.
What is sedimentary rocks?

Mrs. Alonzo is making toast for breakfast, tell what 2 forms of energy is she using to toast the bread.
What is electrical energy and thermal energy?
A construction crew cuts through rock exposing six layers that contain fossils. The top layer being 1 and the bottom layer being 6. Workers want to know which layer would have the oldest fossils and why.
What is layer 6 because over millions of years sediments have been deposited, compacted, cemented into layers forming layers that contain fossils?
If tea powder and sugar are mixed in water, what changes occur to the physical properties of the ingredients?
Both the tea powder and sugar dissolve in the water because they are soluble.
