100
Is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy.
What is photosynthesis
100
Is mixture of molten or semi-molten rock, found beneath the surface of the earth.
What is magma
100
Is the thick middle layer in the solid part of the earth.
What is the mantle
100
determining the order that rock layers were deposited in using no dates.
What is relative dating
100
Is the formulation of a plan to help an engineer build a product with a specific performance goal.
What is the engineering design loop
200
The more you use fossils fuels the higher the level of CO2 in the atmosphere.
What is the human impact of using fossil fuels
200
Molten rock expelled by a volcano during an eruption.
What is lava
200
The plastic like layer found within the upper mantle.
What is the lithosphere
200
In an unaltered sequence of rocks, the bottom layer is oldest and the top is youngest.
What is the principal of superposition
200
Is a step in the design loop process that is used to help you seek out the purpose for the product.
What is determine the need
300
The release of CO2 through breathing by plants, animals, and most bacteria.
What is respiration
300
Coarse and Fine.
What is the two types of textures for igneous rock
300
Is a liquid layer, thick composed of iron and nickel that lies above earth's solid inner core and below its mantle.
What is the outer core
300
Is a gap in time.
What is an unconformity
300
Is an early sample build to test a concept or process.
What is a prototype
400
The decay of plants and animals.
What is deposition
400
is liquid rock that forms under earth's surface.
What is intrusive
400
Is the part of earth's lithosphere that surfaces in the ocean basins.
What is oceanic crust
400
Gap between lower layers that have been tilted and new horizontal on top.
What is angular unconformity
400
Is a smaller or larger physical copy of an object.
What is a model
500
The burning of fossil fuels.
What is combustion
500
Is rock that forms on the surface of the earth.
What is extrusive
500
oceanic is more dense and thinner, while continental crust is less dense and thicker.
What is the difference between oceanic and continental crust
500
Fossil of actual parts of organism unaltered or changed.
What is an body fossil
500
Is a step in the design loop process were you do more background research of what you will be building.
What is research the problem
