This tool is used to measure temperature.
What is a thermometer?
100
This is the transfer of heat from direct contact.
What is conduction?
100
These are the four stages of the water cycle.
What are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
100
This is how wind is formed.
What is the uneven heating of the Earth's surface?
100
This is the innermost and densest layer in the atmosphere.
What is the troposphere?
200
This tool measures air pressure.
What is a barometer?
200
This is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.
What is radiation?
200
This stage of the water cycle in when water vapor forms into clouds.
What is condensation?
200
These are the three types of global winds.
What are easterlies, westerlies, and trade winds?
200
This is the second innermost layer in the atmosphere.
What is the troposphere?
300
This is how rain is measured.
What is a rain gauge?
300
This is the transfer of energy due to the movement of matter.
What is convection?
300
This stage of the water cycle is when water gets heated up and turns into a gas.
What is evaporation?
