It's Electrifying!
This is the flow of electric charge through a conductor.
What is the current?
This type of force occurs when two surfaces rub against each other, slowing motion.
What is friction?
This relationship occurs when both organisms benefit, like a bee pollinating a flower while getting nectar.
What is mutualism?
This is the factor that is measured or observed in an experiment.
What is the dependent variable?
This is the closest planet to the Sun.
What is Mercury?
This unit is used to measure electrical potential difference.
What is a volt?
This is the formula for force, which combines mass and acceleration.
What is F = ma?
This term describes all the living and non-living things in a particular area that interact with each other.
What is an ecosystem?
This describes how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value.
What is accuracy / precision?
This gas makes up most of the Earth's atmosphere.
In this type of circuit, all components are connected one after another along a single path.
What is a series circuit?
This is the constant speed an object reaches when the force of air resistance balances the force of gravity during free fall.
What is terminal velocity?
This biome is characterized by grasslands with scattered trees and is home to animals like lions, elephants, and zebras.
What is the Savannah biome?
This is the final summary of what you learned from your experiment, stating whether your hypothesis was correct.
What is the conclusion?
The process of a solid directly turning into a gas.
What is sublimation?
This material does not allow electric current to pass through easily.
What is an insulator?
This is the support force exerted by a surface, acting perpendicular to the object resting on it.
What is the normal force?
This is the role or job an organism has in its environment, including how it gets food and interacts with other species.
What is a niche?
After conducting an experiment, this is the process of organizing and studying the data collected.
What is (data) analysis?
The center of an atom and a cell share this name.
What is a nucleus?
These tiny negatively charged particles flow through wires to create electricity.
What are electrons?
This symbol, often written as a Greek letter, represents a number that describes how much friction exists between two surfaces.
(Double points for Greek letter)
What is the coefficient of friction (mu, μ)?
This is a random change in an organism's DNA that can lead to variation in a species, sometimes contributing to evolution.
What is a mutation?
This refers to how well an experiment actually tests what it is intended to test.
What is validity?
This is one of two mammals that lay eggs.
(Double points for both mammals)
What is the echidna?
What is the platypus?
