| What is the correct order for the scientific method | It is Problem, Hypotossiess, Materials, Procedure, Observations, Analysis, Discussion, Conclusion |
| What is Problem | It is the question that will be awncerd with the expairment |
| What is Hypotheses | It is a prediction on the outcome of the expairment |
| What is Materials | They are the Materials that are needed for the expairment |
| What is Procedure | It is the steps taken to perform the expairment |
| What is Obeservation? | This is where you write what you observed during the expairment. No inferences are allowed to be here |
| What is Analysiss | These are the results for the expairment tipicly shown in a graph |
| What is Discousion? | These are paragraphs duscousiong your results where you draw conclusions and discuss sources of error and how you could make your expairment better |
| What is Conclusion? | This is where you state if your hypothesis was correct, what you learned and if your experiment was succesful. |
| What is a qualitative observation | are discribed observations that do not involve numbers. EX: it is blue, it was says tesla |
| What is a quatitative observation | it is an observation that invoves the use of numbers. EX: there are four |
| What is inference? | it is when you make educatied guesses about an observation. For EX: it looks old, it looks damaged |
| Is the interaction between structures and forces is predictable true or false? | true |
| Not all sturctures have a purpose, ture or fulse? | Faulse |
| A perfect center of gravity leads to what? | A more stable structure |
| A wide base and narrow top lead to what? | A more stable sturcture |
| Dome: | Shell structure that looks like the top half of a sphere |
| Arch: | A curved structure used to span a space while supporting a load |
| Truss | a network of beams arranged into triangles |
| Cantilever: | A beam supported olny at 1 end |
| Rebar: | Metal roads that have concrete poured on top of them to make a stronger sturcture |
| Corrugation: | Mutiple folds in a material that provide additional strength |
| I-beam: | a beam that is in the shape of the letter I when seen from the end, saves weight |
| Beam: | Horizontal structure designed to support a load |
| Symmetry | when both sides are exactly the same shape |
| What is a biotic factor? | A living factor |
| what is an abiotic factor | A non living factor |
| Do they depend on each other (yes or no) | yes |
| Are ecosystems in a constant state of change? (yes or no) | yes |
| olny humans can change a ecosystem (yes or no) | no nature can as well |
| Human impacts can alter the einviorment. Should we be aware of this (yes or no) | yes |
| is rock biotic or abiotic | abiotic |
| is bacteria aboitc or boitc | biotic |
| What is an orginisum? | It is a living thing |
| what is a population | It is a group of orginisums of the same species in a certain area |
| what is community | it is a group of populations of different species in a certain area |
| What is an ecosystem? | it is the network of interactions that link the living and non-living parts of an enviorment |
| What is a biome | Biomes are regions of land with characteristic climate, soil, and organisms. |
| What is the biosphere | it is the sphere in where life is living |
| What are the roles of varios orginsiums? | They all have a massive role of transferring energy from one animal to another so that life can exist |
| What is compitition? | When more than one organism tires to obtain the same basic resources in the same habitat |
| What is preditation | this is when one organism (the preditor) will hunt another organism (its prey) |
| what is symolisess | Symbiosis is any type of a close and long-term biological interaction between two different biological organisms |
| What are the two types of consumers | Primary and secondary |
| What are food chains and what are their purpose | food chains show where animals get there food from. there purpose is to show where they get there food from and where it goes |
| What is the diffrence between a food web and chain | A food web is more zoomed out and shows multiple different food sources for different animals rather than just 1 |
| what is a detrivore | it is an orginsasum that feeds on large plant sof decaying plant and animal matter and on waste material |
| what is a decomposer | it is an organism that consumes and breaks down dead organisms or waste matter into simple substances |
| What are scavengers | an orginsum that eats allready dead orginusms |
| The water cycle is when | water evaporiates into the sky, than condansates and rains, than travels into large body of water and that evaporates again |
| The carbon cycle is when | photosyptisess producers inhale c02 and then it ether ends up in the ground (fossil files) in the air again, or in other organisms. When the other organisms die it ends up back in the air and when fossil fuels are burned it also ends up in the air. |
| What does an ecological pyrmid show? | An ecological pyramid is a visual way to show the effects of loss of energy as we move up the trophic levels in a food web. The base of the pyramid is the producers. Each higher level corresponds to the primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers with the highest predator at the top. |
| How much energy is passed form 1 torpic level to another | olny 10 percent |
