Which condition is necessary for dunes to form?

loose, sandy sediments and strong winds

Frequent rains and abundant plant life

Strong ocean currents and large boulders

Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes

Canyons and delta are in common because they both form

due to the action of moving water

where lots of sediments collect

What feature is the same in the formation of many sedimentary rocks and all fossil fuels? Many sedimentary rocks and all fossil fuels -

require material to be buried and exposed to heat and pressure.

are made out of organic material that stores the Sun’s energy.

form where there are frequent earthquakes and volcanic activity.

are produced high in the mountains where temperatures are low.

Scientist are studying water levels of a lake for 30 years. What are they studying?

Climate, because they are measuring over a long period of time

Climate, because they are measuring the rainfall

Weather, because they expect rainfall to continue

Weather, because they are tracking changes to the environment

Climate and weather are different concepts, though they are related. How are the concepts of weather and climate different?

Climate covers larger areas and longer times than weather.

Weather refers to conditions nearer to the ground than climate.

Climate is related to the amount of sunlight; weather is not.

Weather conditions include precipitation, but climate does not.

Which of the following is an example of weather data?

The relative humidity was 24% at noon on July 23 in Tempe, Arizona.

On average, there is 88 mm of rain in the Gulf Coast region in July.

5.8B Which of the following is not a step in the water cycle?

All are steps in the water cycle.

How is the Sun involved in the creation of clouds

Heat from the Sun warms the ocean, evaporating water. The vapor condenses forming clouds

Heat from the Sun causes clouds to join over oceans.

Light from the Sun causes water to condense, the water then evaporates to form clouds.

Light from the Sun reflects water vapor forming clouds

What is condensation ?

The part of the water cycle when the water vapor in the air gets cold. The water turns back into a liquid and forms clouds.

The part of the water cycle when the sun heats up water, turning it from a liquid into water vapor or steam. It rises from the ground into the air.

The part of the water cycle when clouds get heavy and can no longer hold the liquid water. This causes the water to fall from the sky to the earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.

Which of these completes the diagram?

Mountains and valleys on the surface

Surface is frequently changed by erosion

Which statement correctly describes the sun's apparent movement across the sky?

As Earth spins on its axis, it makes the sun appear to move across the sky.

As the sun spins around Earth, it moves across the sky.

Earth rotates around the sun every 24 hours, making the sun appear to move across the sky

The sun rotates around Earth every 12 hours, making the sun appear to move across the sky.

The moon does not produce any light. Yet we can we see the moon in the sky. Why?

Moon reflecting the Sun's light

Earth reflecting the Moon's light

Can change within a few minutes or hours!

Takes a very long time to change!

Can change within a few minutes or hours!

How does a grasshopper's green color help it to survive on the prairie? The green color helps the grasshopper -

Avoid being seen in its habitat

The shells of sea turtles are flatter than the shells of land turtles. Sea turtles are also different from land turtles because sea turtles cannot pull their head or limbs into their shell to protect themselves from predators. Instead, the head, shell shape, and flippers of sea turtles help them escape from predators mainly by allowing them to--- (5.10A)

Based on observations of the pictures of these animals, which statement describes an advantage that only one of these animals has in obtaining food? (5.10A)

The gerenuk has a long neck that allows it to reach high to eat from trees.

The Thomson's gazelle has a body shape that allows it to run faster when chasing prey.

The Thomson's gazelle has horns that can be used to move tree branches out of the way to reach food.

The gerenuk has a sharp, pointed nose for detecting the scent of predators.
