2 $100 Jeopardy Menu This type of light damages DNA in human cells. What UV light? Life on Earth

3 $200 This is a thin layer of gas around the earth that protects humans from harmful UV light. Jeopardy Menu What is the ozone layer? Life on Earth

4 $300 Earth is the only planet to have this compound in liquid form. Jeopardy Menu What is water? Life on Earth

5 $400 This would happen to water on earth if the earth were moved much further from the sun. Jeopardy Menu Question: What is freezing? Life on Earth

6 $500 The atmosphere allows life on earth for these two reasons. Jeopardy Menu 1.We breath oxygen in the atmosphere. 2.The ozone layer protects us from UV light. Life on Earth

7 $100 Wind energy is an example of this type of resource. Jeopardy Menu What is a renewable resource? Natural Resources

8 $200 Fossil fuels are an example of this type of resource. Jeopardy Menu What is a nonrenewable resource? Natural Resources

9 $300 This might happen to the earth’s temperatures if we increase the amount of cars driving on earth. What is an increase in global temperatures. Jeopardy Menu Natural Resources

10 $400 Burning these resources causes acid rain What are coal, oil, and gasoline (fossil fuels). Jeopardy Menu Natural Resources

11 $500 Name four renewable resources Solar Energy, Wind Energy, Water Energy, and Wood. Jeopardy Menu Natural Resources

12 $100 As this layer of gas gets thinner, human skin cancer rates will likely increase. Jeopardy Menu What is the ozone layer? Human Impact

13 $200 These compounds are contained in hairspray, air conditioners, and refrigerators. These compounds break down ozone gas. Jeopardy Menu What are Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)? Human Impact

14 $300 After humans burn a field, this type of succession will take place (starting with soil). Jeopardy Menu What is secondary succession? Human Impact

15 $400 Plant roots hold soil in place. The roots help decrease _____________________. What is erosion? Jeopardy Menu Human Impact

16 $500 Humans released these chemicals into the atmosphere. These chemicals cause the thinning of the ozone layer. What are Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)? Jeopardy Menu Human Impact

17 $100 This organism breaks rock down into soil. (hint: it is a mix of algae and fungus) Jeopardy Menu What is lichen? Ecosystem Changes

18 $200 Name one of the organisms that helps make soil. Jeopardy Menu What is an earthworm, bacteria, or lichen? Ecosystem Changes

19 $300 These microscopic organisms make the soil more fertile by breaking down dead things (hint: they are decomposers) What are bacteria? Jeopardy Menu Ecosystem Changes

20 $400 This organism makes channels for plant roots and also buries dead plant parts. This makes the soil more fertile. What is an earthworm? Jeopardy Menu Ecosystem Changes

21 $500 DAILY DOUBLE! Jeopardy Menu Ecosystem Changes

22 $500 Name the (1) organism and (2) process that made most of the oxygen in the atmosphere about 2.5 billion years ago. What are bacteria using photosynthesis? Jeopardy Menu Ecosystem Changes

23 $100 This type of succession starts with bare rock. Jeopardy Menu What is primary succession? Natural Succession

24 $200 This type of succession starts with soil. Jeopardy Menu What is secondary succession? Natural Succession

25 $300 This organism grows on bare rock after a volcanic eruption. Jeopardy Menu What is lichen? Natural Succession

26 $400 After a major fire near Farmington, this will be the first plant to grow in the soil. Jeopardy Menu What is grass? Natural Succession

27 $500 Many years ago, a volcanic eruption killed many plants and animals on an island. Today the island looks much as it did before the eruption. What process caused this to happen? Jeopardy Menu What is succession? Natural Succession

28 $100 This is the process or wearing away the earth by wind or water. What is erosion? Jeopardy Menu Random

29 $200 Name one organism that helps create soil and explain how it helps create soil Jeopardy Menu -Worms and bacteria help create soil by breaking down dead things and returning nutrients to the soil. -Lichen breaks down rocks. Random

30 $300 Water created the grand canyon with this process. What is erosion? Jeopardy Menu Random

31 $400 This line represents the carrying capacity of the ecosystem. Jeopardy Menu What is line D? Random

32 $500 Order the stages in the picture from first to last stage of primary succession. Lichens on rock, grasses, shrubs, coniferous trees, deciduous trees. Jeopardy Menu Random
