1. What do you already know?
Stations 11-20

2. What are three ways that heat can move from one substance to another?
Conduction, convection, radiation song

3. Conduction – Transfer of energy by direct touch
CONDUCTION VIDEO

4. Convection – Heat energy transfer in a fluid with the warmer rising, cooling and then falling.

5. Radiation – Transfer of heat energy by electromagnetic radiation
Radiation – Transfer of heat energy by electromagnetic radiation. Objects do not need to touch for this to happen.
This picture shows infrared electromagnetic radiation from the fire transferring to the hand.

6. Notes for your book. 1. Heat can move from one substance to another by
Conduction – example: ____________________________
Convection – example: _____________________________
Radiation – example: _______________________________
TURN TO YOUR NEIGHBOR AND DISCUSS AN EXAMPLE OF EACH FROM THE VIDEO AND/OR PICTURES WE JUST SAW.

7. Describe what happens to radiant energy once it enters the atmosphere
Describe what happens to radiant energy once it enters the atmosphere. How does radiant energy cause weather?

8. When energy from the sun enters the atmosphere, some is absorbed by the ground or clouds and some is reflected back.

9. How does radiant energy cause weather?
After the ground absorbs the sun’s energy it heats the air above it and that air rises, cools and falls. This causes WIND.
When water absorbs the sun’s energy, the water evaporates and rises. It then cools (convection) and forms clouds. When the cloud is full of evaporated water, it rains.

10. What is the energy source that drives plate tectonics
What is the energy source that drives plate tectonics? Describe how this energy moves the plates. What happens when the plates move?

11. (see page 42 of your FSA notebook)

12. What happens when the plates move?
When plates move part, earthquakes and volcanoes form.
When plates move together volcanoes, earthquakes and mountains form.
Plates moving together: convergent boundary
Plates moving apart: divergent boundary
Plate slide past each other: transform boundary

13. Notes for #13
Energy source that drives the plates: convection currents in the mantle
This energy moves the plates by causing them to either move apart or come together.
When the plates move apart
Volcanoes, earthquakes and rift valleys form and there is sea-floor spreading
When plates move together
Volcanoes, earthquakes and mountains form
When plates slide past each other:
Earthquakes happen

14. List and describe several physical properties of matter
List and describe several physical properties of matter. Which of these properties could be used to identify a pure substance?
Density Electrical conductivity Heat conductivity Malleability (ability to bend or be shaped) Boiling point Melting point Dissolvability (when something dissolves in water – water is the solvent) ALL can be used to identify a pure substance.

15. What are some similarities and differences in light and sound waves?
SOUND AND LIGHT WAVES VIDEO

16. Waves

17. Waves - continued

19. Sound waves and ocean waves

20. Talk to your neighbor and be ready to share how they are different

21. Copy into your FCAT ScAT book

22. List and describe the function of as many cell organelles as you can.

23. Look in your FSA folder pg 5.
Organelle
Function
Cell Wall
Cell membrane
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Chloroplast
Mitochondrion
Vacuole

24. Answers Organelle Function Cell wall
Support for plant, bacterial and fungal cells
Cell membrane
Enzyme activity and regulates entry and exit of materials
Nucleus
Controls cell activities
Cytoplasm
Fluid that contains cell organelles
Chloroplast
Site of photosynthesis (only in plants)
Mitochondrion
Energy production
Vacuole
Storage

25. What are some similarities and differences between sexual and asexual reproduction? (pg 18 FSA NB)
Asexual reproduction involves only one parent
Sexual reproduction involves two parents – male and female

27. Answer to #17

28. Difference between meiosis and mitosis - see page 18 in FSA folder
Mitosis – One cell divides into two identical cells. Most cells perform mitosis to replicate and replace themselves. Single-celled organisms like bacteria perform mitosis to reproduce asexually. Mitosis makes diploid cells = cells with a full set of DNA

29. Describe and compare several different methods for generating electricity.
Talk to your partner to discuss all the ways you know of to generate electricity.

30. Ways to generate electricity
Batteries
Solar panels
Wind mill
Nuclear
Hydro-electric (using dams to hold back water)
WHAT ELSE?

31. Think about the carbon cycle. How is carbon added to the atmosphere?

32. How is carbon removed from the atmosphere?

33. Carbon and the atmosphere
Added to the atmosphere: volcanoes, forest fires, decomposition of wastes, growing new plants and trees, burning fossil fuels.
Removing carbon from the atmosphere: Plants use it for photosynthesis

34. (Carbon cycle) How is carbon added to the atmosphere
(Carbon cycle) How is carbon added to the atmosphere? How is energy transformed during the carbon cycle?
Talk to your neighbor and be ready to tell one way that energy is transformed in this picture.

35. (Carbon cycle) How is carbon added to the atmosphere
(Carbon cycle) How is carbon added to the atmosphere? How is energy transformed during the carbon cycle?
Radiant energy (EM energy) is transformed through photosynthesis into glucose (chemical energy).

36. What is the difference between test variables (independent variables) and outcome variables (dependent variables)?
Talk to your neighbor and be ready to answer

37. What is the difference between test variables (independent variables) and outcome variables (dependent variables)?
Remember INDEPENDENT variable (Capital I – means “I, the scientist, change it.
Dependent variable is what you are measuring (it depends on what the scientist has changed).

38. How are control groups different from experimental groups?
Control groups are a group in which NOTHING IS CHANGED.
Example: During a drug test, some people are given the drug (the Independent variable) and some people are not given anything.
Experimental groups are the groups which have something changed.
In the above example, the experimental group is the group of people who are given the different types of medicine.
