Unit 5: Energy Basics | Unit 6: Earth Energy | Unit 7: Ecology |
---|---|---|
What is Mechanical Energy
The motion of objects.
|
What is Hydrosphere
This spere contains all the water.
|
What is 10%
The primary consumer of the Food Pyramid has this much energy.
|
What is work
When the KE of an object changes.
|
What is Convention
Uneven heating of matter causes this.
|
What is Individual, Population, Community, Ecosystem, Biome, and Biosphere
The different levels of Ecology.
|
What is Elastic energy
A type of potential energy stored in any type of stretched or compose elastic material.
|
What is Earth as a closed system
Materials cycle through the earth’s spheres: atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and cryosphere.
|
What is a Producer
Orgasms that produce their own food.
|
What is solving for Kinetic Energy
KE=1/2(m)v2
|
What is Earths Energy
It is simply transferred between spheres or converted into another form of energy.
|
What is 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight = C5H12O6 + 6O2
The equation for photosynthesis.
|
What is solving for Potential Energy
PE=(m)(g)(h)
|
What is convection
The air becomes denser and begins to sink back toward Earth’s surface. As the cooled air sinks, it forces warm air away from Earth’s surface.
|
What is Grana and Stroma
Photosynthesis takes place in two parts of the chloroplasts.
