6.4 Energy Test Review

During a science class, Elijah and Molly were discussing why the sun is important in the formation of most energy sources on Earth. What could be the reason?

• The sun radiates light and heat towards Earth, warming the Earth and creating wind, the water cycle, and keeping Earth from freezing.

• The sun does not contribute to most of the energy on Earth. Just Solar Energy.

• The Sun keeps Earth warm. This lets humans create energy because if not we would all just freeze.

• The Sun works with the moon to make Energy on Earth by influencing the tides.

During a science class, A'leigha and Gabby were discussing the different components of Earth's energy budget. They were curious about what happens to the solar energy that reaches Earth. Can you help them identify the term for the solar energy that actually arrives at the Earth's surface?

During a class project, Ava and Caleb were discussing climate change. Ava asked, "What causes the greenhouse effect?"

• Excess carbon dioxide and other gases entering our atmosphere

• Excess carbon dioxide and other gases leaving our atmosphere

• Solar Radiation entering our atmosphere

• Recycling used or new plastics and glass.

Guadalupe and Steven are studying the Earth's energy systems. They observe an image showing how energy is transferred from the Earth's surface. What is being shown?

• Radiation and conduction from Earth’s surface transfer electrical energy. This energy powers the global circulation of the atmosphere and the oceans on our planet.

• Conduction and conduction from Earth’s surface transfer mechanical energy. This energy powers the global circulation of the atmosphere and the oceans on our planet.

• Radiation and convection from Earth’s surface transfer thermal energy. This energy powers the global circulation of the atmosphere and the oceans on our planet.

• Conduction and convection from Earth’s surface transfer visible light. This energy powers the global heat of the atmosphere and the oceans on our planet.
