Activity! Condensation
Teacher provides ice cold can of soda to table groups and students record temperature. Students should observe each can for evidence of condensation.

Activity! Condensation Questions.
Why did condensation droplets form on the cold soda can? Where did the water come from?

Activity! Condensation Questions.
Why did condensation droplets form on the cold soda can? Where did the water come from? Condensation formed on the cold soda can because water vapor near the soda can turned from a gas to a liquid.

Cloud formation occurs with water vapor and condensation nuclei.

Precipitation: Water that is so heavy it falls as liquid / solid.

Precipitation can also be a solid in the form of snow, hail, or ice pellets.

New Biogeochemical Cycle: The Carbon Cycle.

Carbon is the duct tape of life. Living things are made of carbon.

Answer! Carbon pools are everywhere, and most are impacted in some way by human activities.

One of these Carbon Reservoirs until recently has been locked away for millions of years. Which One?

Carbon that has been out of the carbon cycle of millions of years

Oil is pumped out of Earth and used by humans.

“New” Carbon now introduced into the Carbon Cycle for the first time in millions of years.

Carbon is a major player in Anthropogenic global warming.

Equation for Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy  C6H12O6 + 6O2 Sunlight

Photosynthesis is the process by which light energy is utilized to convert carbon dioxide and water into food to be used by plants. Oxygen is released into the air during the process. (O2) Light or solar energy is captured by chlorophyll (CHLOR-oh-phil), the green pigment in leaves. It is then converted into chemical energy which is stored as starch or sugar. These starches and sugars are stored in roots, stems and fruits. They are available to the plant as food or fuel. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

A.) Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water. B.) Oxygen and glucose are produced in photosynthesis. C.) Carbon Dioxide and water are produced. D.) In photosynthesis, plants use radiant energy from the sun to create chemical energy in the form of sugars. E.) None of the above. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
