  • What is this image an example of?
    refraction
  • Which moon phase is a waxing crescent?
    D
  • What type of wave needs a medium to travel through?
    sound waves
  • Draw a picture on you desk of how a normal lens transmits light
    It should transmit through the lens in a straight line
  • What would happen to the population of the squirrels if the population of the grasshoppers decreased?
    The population of squirrels would decrease?
  • What is similar about these two waves?
    similar amplitudes
  • What are the two outputs of photosynthesis?
    oxygen and glucose
  • What role does a producer play in a food web?
    Source of energy in a food web/chain
  • What color shirt should you wear on a hot, sunny day to stay cool? Why?
    white because it reflects the sun's light waves instead of absorb them.
  • What is the order of the S-E-M needed for a solar eclipse?
    Sun, moon, Earth
  • Define a parasitic relationship
    One species benefits and the other is harmed
  • What are the three inputs of photosynthesis?
    carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight
  • What are the two types of shadows we see in an eclipse?
    umbra and penumbra
  • What is the difference between rotation and revolution? What is an example of each?
    Rotation - spinning on an axis (earth spinning), revolution - spinning around an object (earth around the sun)
  • What is extra glucose stored as?
    Starch
  • How does too much competition affect population?
    If there is too much competition, populations can decrease due to lack of resources.
  • A prism refracts light in the direction of the thicker or thinner part of the prism?
    thicker
  • What part of a wave is the red box?
    wavelength
  • What part of a wave is the orange box?
    crest
  • What keeps the moon in orbit around Earth?
    Earth's gravitational pull
  • What type of eclipse would people in Memphis, Tennessee observe?
    Partial solar eclipse - it is not in the path of totality
  • What is the difference between a rarefaction and compression on a longitudinal wave?
    a compression is where the wave is packed together and rarefaction is where the wave is spread apart
  • What causes the four season?
    Earth's rotation on its axis AND revolution around the sun
  • What are the objects in the S-E-M System
    Sun, earth, moon
  • Which wave will have a higher pitch?
    bottom wave
  • What is this image an example of?
    transmission
  • Draw a picture on your desk of how a convex lens refracts light
    It should refract at the thicker part of the lens
  • What part of a wave is the green box?
    trough
  • Which material will absorb more light? Why?
    Asphalt, it is darker than concrete so it will absorb more light
  • Why do we always see the same side of the moon?
    The moon takes an equal amount of time to rotate as it does to revolve around the Earth (27.3 days)
  • When it is summer in northern hemisphere, what season is it in the southern hemisphere?
    winter
  • What factors allow gravity to keep the ISS around Earth?
    velocity, distance, and mass
  • What would happen if the Earth did not rotate on a tilted axis?
    The earth would have no seasons
  • What are examples of resources needed for animal survival?
    food, water, shelter
  • What part of a wave is the blue box?
    amplitude
  • What determines the energy of a wave?
    amplitude
  • Define a commensalistic relationship
    One species benefits and the other is unaffected
  • What is photosynthesis? Be specific!
    The process in which plants and some other organisms use the energy in sunlight to make food.
  • What season is it when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun?
    summer
  • Define a mututalistic relationship
    Both species help each other and benefit
  • What are the factors of gravity?
    Velocity, mass, and distance
  • What is the relationship between predator and prey?
    predator eats prey
  • What is this image an example of?
    reflection
  • What is this image an example of?
    absorption
  • Draw a picture on your desk of how a concave lens refracts light
    It should refract at the thicker part of the lens
  • What is different about these two waves?
    top - longer wavelength and low frequency, bottom - shorter wavelength, high frequency
