  • With your team, act out/ explain Continental Drift and evidence that supports Pangea exsisted.
    Pangea (250 MYA) and drifted apart: coastlines match, fossil evidence, rock layers match.
  • If Alfred Wegner were to start a band, what would be his band's name and his top 2 song names? (answers must be inspired from his famous discoveries)
    Answers should be inspired from continental drift, pangea, fossil evidence, glacier, coastline evidence, or rock evidence.
  • Give an everyday example of tension and compression.
    Answers May Vary
  • With your team, act out/explain natural selection with a scenario.
    Advantageous traits adapt / survive / able to reproduce.
  • If John Mayer were to sing about another force, what would be the name of the song AND its opening line?
    "Gravity...it's workin against me!!!..." but something different.
  • Explain the difference between a P and S Wave.
    P Waves = faster, can go through any layer, longitudinal wave. S Waves = slower, can only go through solids, transverse wave.
  • Refer to the pedigree. How could person ll-2 and ll-3 have a baby with the hemophilia trait when neither of them show the trait
    They are carriers of the hemophilia trait (heterozygous)
  • Choose 2 people from your team to act out and explain an example of a reference point.
    Anything used to measure motion
  • Name the compositional and mechanical layers of the Earth.
    Compositional = crust, mantle, core Mechanical = lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core.
  • This pedigree represents the inheritance of hemophilia in this family. How many of the females have the hemophilia trait?
    2
  • Explain 2 differences between Mitosis and Meiosis.
    Mitosis = identifical offspring, body cell division, Meiosis = sex cell division, nonidentical offspring
  • How many siblings does Miss Gang have, how old are they, and what are their names?
    2, Sam (28), Val (37)
  • Name all the types of CONTACT FORCES. (6)
    Friction, Air Resistance, Applied Force, Normal Force, Tension, Compression
  • Explain the age of the seafloor based upon the rocks location in relation to the M. O. R.
    New crust comes through M.O.R. , cools and solidifies to form new rock. (young rock nearest to ridge, old rock further from ridge.)
  • Which line could travel to Earth's core? What kind of wave is this?
    Line B / P-Wave

    3
  • What is the magnitude of letter E?

  • On your whiteboard, draw a time-distance that fits the following scenario: I sprinted to 2nd period, but then I tripped and fell. I picked myself back up and sprinted again.
    increase - flat or lower slope - increase in slope
  • Explain the different CONS about Asexual and Sexual Reproduction.
    Asexual = no diversity, lower adaptation rates. Sexual = higher mutation rates, longer time/energy
  • Which famous song by John Denver was inspired and written about a famous american mountain chain? What is that mountain chain and why is it older compared to the other famous mountain chain?
    Country Roads - Appalachian Mountains (been around longer to be weathered).
  • With your team, come up with a boring short story that represents the slope of this distance-time graph.
    constant speed - rest - constant speed
  • In which layer of earth are there convection currents?
    Asthenosphere
  • What is the phenotype of all of the offspring? (A-Brown hair; a-blond hair)
    75% Brown Hair and 25% Blonde Hair
  • Name all of the types of NONCONTACT FORCES (3)
    GFF, MFF, EFF
  • On a pedigree chart, which symbols represent a male and female?
    Square = male Circle = Female
  • Draw and label a free-body diagram that would accelerate to the right. (vectors!!!)
    (vector needs to indicate acceleration to the right)

    Answers may include: seafloor spreading, mid ocean ridge, magnetic reversal, world war 2...
