100

This system is responsible for transporting blood around the body.

What is the circulatory system?

100

This type of rock forms when magma cools and solidifies.

What is igneous rock?

100

This resource is formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals over millions of years.

What are fossil fuels?

100

This element has the symbol 'Fe'.

What is iron?

100

This is a sign of a chemical change.

What is the formation of a new substance?

100

This is the type of variable that is changed in an experiment.

What is the independent variable?

200

This organelle is where photosynthesis occurs in plant cells.

What is the chloroplast?

200

This organ absorbs nutrients from digested food.

What is the small intestine?

200

This process breaks down rocks through physical and chemical means.

What is weathering?

200

This is an example of an unlimited renewable energy source.

What is sunlight?

200

Water (H2O) is an example of this.


    • What is a compound?

200

A chemical change during respiration produces this.

This variable is the one that is measured in an experiment.

What is the dependent variable?

300

This is the process by which cells release energy from sugar.

What is respiration?

300

This organ system removes waste products from the body, such as urea.

What is the excretory system?

300

This type of rock can be formed from the compaction and cementation of sediments.

300

Compounds are made up of these, which are chemically bonded together.

What are elements?

300

This describes a physical change where a substance changes state, but no new substance is formed.

What is melting (or freezing, evaporating, etc.)?

300

This part of an experiment is kept the same to make comparisons.

What is a control variable?

400

This structure provides support and shape to plant cells.

What is the cell wall?

400

The lungs are connected to this system to help with oxygen exchange.

400

In a layer of sedimentary rock, the oldest layer is typically found in this position.

What is the base?

400

These are two disadvantages of using fossil fuels.

What are pollution and depletion of resources?

400

This describes the difference between a compound and a mixture.

What is that compounds are chemically bonded, while mixtures are not?

400

This type of reaction releases heat, such as in an exothermic reaction.

What is a chemical reaction?

400

The conclusion of an experiment must do this.
