life science
what is a abiotic factor
the nonliving part of a ecosystem
what is conduction
the process where heat is transferred by direct contact
what is kinetic energy
the energy of motion
what do engineers use the engineering and design process for
Plan and carry out tests on one or more elements of a
prototype in which variables are controlled
what are renewable resources
resources that renew themselves quickly
if the producer has 8000 energy how much energy would the primary consumer have
800
what is the difference between weather and climate
weather is short term climate is long term
what is stored energy
potential energy
what do engineers use the engineering and design process for
each solution is
evaluated by looking at the criteria and constraints.
what are non renewable resources
resources that do not renew themselves quickly
Producers, Consumers, or Decomposers witch of those has the most energy
producers
what drives the climate of a region
global wind systems and ocean currents
what is the law of conservation of energy
the law that say energy can not be created or destroyed
what do engineers use the engineering and design process for
to find many solutions
to a problem.
what are the types of renewable resources
solar, wind, water, geothermal, and biomass
which species out competes the other a native or invasive species
invasive species
what is a barometer
a tool that measures atmospheric pressure
kinetic energy can be what
thermal, sound, radiant, electrical, or
mechanical
what do engineers do when they use the engineering and design process
each solution is
evaluated by looking at the criteria and constraints. Tools and measurements can help develop a prototype (model)
of a solution to a problem.
what are the types of nonrenewable resources
fossil fuels like coal, oil,and natural gas,
what is a mutualistic relationship
where both animals benefit
what instrument measures wind speed
anemometer
what can potential energy be
gravitational, chemical, electrical, elastic,
or magnetic.
what can tools and measurements do
help develop a prototype (model)
of a solution to a problem.
why are nonrenewable resources non renewable
they take millions of years to form
