3D Model 

This is a type of model that lets you see it from all sides and, in some cases, to look inside.

Correlation

There is a _______ between two variables when values from one can be used to predict values of the other. This is not the same thing as causation.

Ex: There is a ___________ between education level and salary, though one may not cause the other.

Model

A small object, usually built to scale, that represents in detail another, often larger object.

Physical Model

This is a physical construction that accurately represents something that is either unseen, or something that is either too small or too large to view under normal circumstances. It may also be a physical construction that represents an idea.

Scale

In a model, this the ratio of the linear dimension of the model to the same dimension of the original.

Simulation

This is Imitation or representation, as of a potential situation or in experimental testing.

Ex: Using a computer screen attached to a steering wheel to learn to drive.

Size

This is how big or small something is.

Multiple Choice

Groundwater moves from the ground through plants and then back into the atmosphere through the process of

• condensation.

• precipitation.

• run-off.

• transpiration.

Explanation:

Plants put water back into the atmosphere through the process of transpiration.

Water is carried through plants from roots to small pores on the underside of leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere. Transpiration is evaporation of water from plant leaves

Multiple Choice

Look carefully at the model. Plants take in and release carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. What process releases carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere?

• condensation.

• precipitation.

• respiration.

• transpiration

Explanation:

Both animals and plants undergo cellular respiration to produce energy. The by-products of respiration are carbon dioxide and water vapor.

Multiple Choice

Consider the diagram of the water cycle. Assume that deforestation has taken place. Explain how this affects the movement of water through this model?

• Runoff will decrease.

• Sea level will increase.

• Condensation will increase.

• Transpiration will decrease.

Explanation:

If the trees are removed through deforestation, then transpiration will decrease. Runoff would increase without the trees and their roots.

Multiple Choice

In the energy pyramid, the greatest biomass appears at the level of

• Birds and Mammals.

• Insects and Zooplankton.

• Phytoplankton

• Small Fish and other Aquatic Species

Explanation:

The phytoplankton level, or the base of any ecological pyramid contains the greatest amount of biomass. This means that there are significantly more phytoplankton and bacteria than birds and mammals.
