6. 4. What is the season in the Northern hemisphere when the Earth is farthest from the Sun (Aphelion)? a.Winter b.Summer c.Spring d.Fall Remember! The seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres are the opposite. When the Earth is farthest from the sun, the season in the northern hemisphere ( USA) is summer and winter in Southern hemisphere ( Aus).

7. summer winter Earth is tilted at 23.5 degrees that results to our seasons.

8. 5. If it is summer in the northern hemisphere, which statement is true? A. Earth has changed the tilt of its axis by 20 degrees due to its revolution. B. It is winter in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth’s axis. C. It is summer in the southern hemisphere due to the tilt of Earth’s axis. D. Earth has reached its closest point to the sun due to its revolution.

9. 6. Kepler’s third law describes the relationship between the average distance of a planet from the sun and the? a.) orbital period. b.) average temperature. c.) gravitational pull. d.) inertia. Kepler's three laws of planetary motion. 1 st Law- orbits are ellipses or oval. 2 nd Law-equal areas in equal time. 3 rd law-planets near the sun orbits faster.

10. 7. Kepler’s second law states that the lines joining the planets to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in? a.) orbital period. b.) elliptical orbit. c.) equal time. d.) gravity. Kepler's three laws of planetary motion. 1 st Law- orbits are ellipses or oval. 2 nd Law-equal areas in equal time. 3 rd law-planets near the sun orbits faster.

11. 8. Which symbol in the picture represents precession? a.A b.P c.N d.R There is no “A” symbol in the picture, option A is wrong! Precession is the rotation of Earth’s axis and it starts with “P”. Nutation is the swaying and it starts with “N”, “R” then stands for rotation.

12. 9. How do stars like our Sun produce heat and energy? a.by splitting atoms like Uranium through nuclear fission. b.by combining atoms like hydrogen or nuclear fusion. Remember! The fuel of stars is Hydrogen or H.

13. Nuclear Fission – splitting of atoms. Nuclear Fusion – splitting of atoms. Hydrogen bomb is 450X stronger than Uranium bomb dropped in Japan. Uranium-235 bomb. Hiroshima and Nagasaki Nuclear fusion powers stars. Electricity production

14. Fission-splits Fusion-combines Powers the Sun. Powers nuclear power plants that provide us electricity.

15. 10. Which describes the difference between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion? A.Nuclear fission is the process that produces the radiant energy of stars, and nuclear fusion splits a heavier nucleus into smaller nuclei. B. Nuclear fission splits a heavier nucleus into smaller nuclei, and nuclear fusion is the process that produces the radiant energy of stars. C. Nuclear fission produces the energy in the core of Earth, and nuclear fusion produces energy in nuclear power plants. D. Nuclear fission produces energy in nuclear power plants, and nuclear fusion produces the energy in the core of Earth.

16. 11. How is solar energy so important to the life on Earth? a.Because light enables living things to see. b.Because light travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves. c.Because plants are producers of food and need sunlight for photosynthesis. d.Because light makes our bones and teeth strong. All of the choices are true but which of them answers the question? Plants need light for photosynthesis and produce food for themselves and everyone.

17. Sunlight is used as energy for photosynthesis Without plants we do not have oxygen and food.

18. 12. Why do green plants require solar energy? A. to produce their own food B. to absorb nitrogen into their roots C. to release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere D. to decompose the dead or decaying remains of animals

19. 13. The point where the Earth and the moon orbit one another is called_____. a.Sun b.gravity c. elliptical d.barycenter Barycenter is the center of gravity. All stars and planets revolve around their barycenter. The Sun is not a point between the Earth and the moon. A is wrong! Gravity is a force not a point between the Earth and the moon. B is wrong! Elliptical is a shape and not a point between the Earth and the moon. C is wrong!

20. Testing Techniques Plate Tectonics Eric Angat Teacher

21. Types of Plate Boundaries Convergent boundary Transform boundary Divergent boundary Pacific Atlantic

22. In what area can you find the most volcanoes? Most volcanoes are found in the Pacific ring of Fire. Area of Most frequent EARTHQUAKES!

23. 1. What type of plate boundary lies between the Pacific plate and the North American Plate? a.Divergent boundary b.Transform boundary c.Convergent boundary d.Sliding boundary

24. 2. What type of plate boundary lies in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean? a.Divergent boundary b.Transform boundary c.Convergent boundary d.Sliding boundary

25. 3. What type of plate boundary lies between the Pacific plate and the Australian Plate? a.Divergent boundary b.Transform boundary c.Convergent boundary d.Sliding boundary

26. 4. The convergent boundaries around the Pacific Ocean forms the_______. a.plate tectonics b.Subduction c.Pacific Ring of Fire d. frequent earthquake Plate tectonics include all types of plate boundaries. A is not the answer. Subduction happens in convergent boundaries but B does not complete the sentence. We are left with C and D. Earthquakes are most frequent around the Pacific Ocean but it does not complete the sentence. Convergent boundary around the Pacific Ocean forms the Pacific Ring of Fire.

28. 6. What kind of plate boundary results to the formation of volcanoes, trench and subduction? a.Divergent b.Transform c.Stress d.Convergent Divergent boundary causes mid ocean ridge. A is not the answer. Transform boundary forms faults, like the San Andreas fault. B is not the answer. Stress is caused by the movement of plates. When the stress reach its limit earthquake happens. C is not the answer. Convergent boundaries form volcanoes, trenches, and causes subduction. D is the answer.
