Instructions for using this template. Remember this is Jeopardy, so where I have written “Answer” this is the prompt the students will see, and where I have “Question” should be the student’s response. To enter your questions and answers, click once on the text on the slide, then highlight and just type over what’s there to replace it. If you hit Delete or Backspace, it sometimes makes the text box disappear. When clicking on the slide to move to the next appropriate slide, be sure you see the hand, not the arrow. (If you put your cursor over a text box, it will be an arrow and WILL NOT take you to the right location.)
Choose a category. You will be given the answer. You must give the correct question. Click to begin.

Geologic Time ReproductionGenetics 10 Point 20 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points 10 Point 20 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points 30 Points 40 Points 50 Points Earth’s Structure Plate Tectonics
Crust is destroyed at this boundary, created at this boundary, and neither created nor destroyed at this boundary
What are convergent boundaries (Subduction Zones), Divergent boundaries, and transform boundaries
The landforms that happen at each plate boundary.
What are: C-C Convergent - Mountains, Earthquakes O-C Convergent - Volcanic Arc, Trench, Earthquakes O-O Convergent - Island Arc, Trench, Earthquakes C-C Divergent - Rift Valley, Earthquakes O-O Divergent - Mid-Ocean Ridge, Volcanoes, Earthquakes Transform - Earthquakes, Faults
The process by which hot magma rises and cooler magma sinks in the mantle, moving tectonic plates.
What are convection currents
The connection between plates and volcanoes/earthquakes
What is most volcanoes and earthquakes occur along plate boundaries
The theory that the continents used to be connected, slowly moved apart over years and are still moving today AND the theory that the crust is split into tectonic plates that move relative to one another
What are the theory of continental drift and the theory of plate tectonics
Landforms shown by a topographic map
What are: Mountain - closed segments Valley - V
The theory that states that in an undisturbed rock sequence the oldest rock layer is on the bottom and the youngest is on the top
What is the law of superposition
Example of a Uniformitarianism process and a Catastrophism process
What are: U - erosion, Weathering, deposition C - Tornado, Hurricane, Tsunami
The law that states that in an undisturbed rock sequence any rock that cuts across other rock layers is younger than the layers it cuts across
What is the law of cross cutting relations
Scientists compare fossils, use radiometric dating, and observe rock sequences to do this
What is estimate geologic time
Where the more dense plate sinks under the less dense plate, sinks into the mantle, melts, then rises back to the surface as a volcano (volcanic arc or island arc)
What is a subduction Zone
Reasons why seismic waves change speed and refract inside the Earth
What are the interior of Earth is made of different materials, have different densities, and pressure.
A process that acts as a constructive and destructive force on Earth’s surface
What is a volcano, running water, tectonic forces, wind, rainstorms, or hurricanes
The layers of the Earth from densest to least dense and how scientists know the makeup of the interior of the Earth
What are the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust, and seismic waves
The process of breaking down rock, the process of carrying sediment from one place to another, and the process of depositing sediment
What are weathering, erosion, and deposition
Why organisms reproduce
What is for the continuation of a species
This happens to a species if they cannot adapt to an environment
What is the species will die out or become extinct
How offspring compare to parents in asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction
What is identical in asexual and traits from both parents (1/2 DNA from each parent) in sexual reproduction
Use the idea of natural selection to explain how pesticides can be bad
What is pesticides kill most of the organisms, but the ones resistant to the pesticides will survive and reproduce passing the resistant genes onto the offspring and will eventually result in an entire population resistant to the pesticide, so it will no longer work
Differences between Mitosis and Meiosis
What are: Meiosis - 4 Daughter cells, ½ genetic material of the parent, 2 divisions, produces sex cells Mitosis - 2 daughter cells, identical genetic material of the parent, 1 division, produces body cells
Pink fur is dominant over blue fur. The genotypes that will result in pink fur.
What are DD and Dd
The only way a recessive trait will show up
What is if there are two recessive alleles (one from mom and one from dad) OR If there is no dominant allele present
The process where organisms that are best adapted to the environment will survive and reproduce
What is natural selection
Controls traits, one or many of these can determine a trait
What are genes
Create a punnett square and answer the following: If a heterozygous guy for brown hair has a baby with a homozygous recessive blonde, what are their chances of having an offspring with blonde hair?
50% B b b Bbbb Bbbb
