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.)

6
What is 78% of the atmosphere? Be specific for the points
7
Nitrogen gas N 2 Not just Nitrogen
8
Nitrogen in plants combines with this when burned.
9
Oxygen
10
What is the number one method for getting nitrogen into plants?
11
Nitrogen fixation by bacteria on legumes’ root nodules.
12
Name the 3 ways that nitrogen becomes a nitrogen containing compound.
13
Bacteria on legumes, lightning (weather), and commercial fertilizer production.
14
Name two ways that humans affect the nitrogen cycle.
15
Fossil fuel burning, waste and Sewage in water, fertilizer, cutting plants/trees, etc.
16
How do plants get CO2 to be usable?
17
Photosynthesis
18
How is carbon in your body released back into the atmosphere?
19
Decomposition/ Bacteria or respiration.
20
Where is the largest carbon sink? Be specific!
21
Bottom of the ocean in sediments and rocks.
22
Increasing carbon in the atmosphere is believed to do this…
23
Warm temperatures/ global warming
24
What is the number one way we increase carbon in the atmosphere?
25
Burning fossil fuels.
26
What does increased driving of cars going to do to our global temperatures?
27
Increase the heat.
28
True/False Increasing carbon dioxide is bad for all life.
29
False. Plants love it!
30
This is how we get CO2 removed from the air.
31
Trees!
32
Besides burning fossil fuels, this increases CO2 in the atmosphere.
33
Cement production, volcanoes, ocean, deforestation, breathing, decomposition.
34
This is the #1 greenhouse gas.
35
Water Vapor
36
Acid rain is caused by this human activity.
37
Burning fossil fuels.
38
Name three effects of acid rain.
39
Kills trees, fish, acidifies water, ruins sculptures and buildings.
40
Ozone is found mostly here.
41
Stratosphere
42
Without an ozone layer, this would increase on the surface.
43
Ultraviolet rays
44
This is the anthropogenic chemical that destroys ozone.
45
Chlorofuorocarbons or CFCs
46
Most of the energy we use on Earth comes from…?
47
Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun
48
Light energy from the sun is converted to this when it hits objects like your head.
49
Heat energy
50
The reflectivity of an object (how much light it bounces) is called…
51
Albedo
52
Why is heat a form of energy?
53
It can do work.
54
How is sunlight mainly stored on Earth?
55
In plants through photosynthesis.
56
Nitrates and Sulfates can cause this to be seen in the air.
57
Smog.
58
This is the main reason CO2 has spiked since 1850.
59
Industrial Revolution
60
What role should scientists play in making public policy and law?
61
Provide data, nothing more.
62
Tess designed an experiment to measure how color affects the absorption of solar energy. She covered one Styrofoam cup with a black, nylon sock and another Styrofoam cup with a white, cotton sock. She left a third cup uncovered. She filled all three cups with 100 ml of room temperature water and set them in the sun. After 60 minutes, she measured the temperature of each of the cups. What’s wrong?
63
2 independent variables
64
Why is the street warmer than the sidewalk next to it?
65
Lower albedo of asphalt compared to concrete.
66
Make your wager
67
What is my wife’s first name?
68
Mrs.
