Light is taken in and transferred to heat energy

The final stage of complete and incomplete Metamorphosis

The movement of the sun across the sky

Magnets pull together

A fuel made from living organisms. Ex: Corn being harvested to make ethanol

Structure or characteristic of an organism that helps it survive

Water gathers together in one place

Renewable energy that does not harm the environment. (wind, solar, hydropower, geothermal, biomass)

The blanket of air that surrounds and protects the Earth.

The imaginary line that runs through Earth's Center. The Earth rotates, or spins, on this line.

Living organisms

100 degrees celsius/ When water changes from a liquid to a gas

Markings that help animals blend in to their environment in order to survive.

A fossil formed when the impression left by an organism is filled with sediments and minerals, which cement together.

When sediments are pressed together when forming sedimentary rock

A complete path for the flow of energy

The complete change of form that some insects go through, as they become adults. 4 stages

A large community occupying a habitat

A deep narrow valley with steep sides caused by weathering and erosion

When sediments begin to stick together when forming sedimentary rock

The average weather of an area over time

All populations of organisms living in an area

A gas cools down and becomes a liquid

The tendency of an object to transfer heat or electricity

To use something wisely (save)

A large hollow pit in the surface of the moon

Consumer that eats only meat

The gas that animals give off and plants take in

An organism that gets its energy by breaking down other organisms

A material that allows heat or electricity to flow through easily

A repeating process

Organism that gets its energy by consuming other organisms

To rot

Piece of land formed at the mouth of a river.

The amount of matter in a certain amount of space

The path that a moving object follows

Includes many different species

The direct result of Earth rotating on its axis.

All living and nonliving things in an area.

An organisms surroundings

Eroded sediments are dropped in a new place

A substance breaks down into tiny particles in a liquid

Information gathered during a scientific investigation

The direction the sun appears to rise

First stage of complete and incomplete metamorphosis

Weathered rock is picked up and moved. "Carried away."

No longer found on Earth

The transfer of energy between organisms in an ecosystem

Shows many food chains linked together

The remains of an organism

0 degrees Celsius/ when a liquid turns into a solid

A liquid heats up and becomes a gas

Energy is produced from the movement of electrons

Shows the flow of energy from one living organism to another

A push or a pull

An energy resource made from remains of ancient plants and animals. (oil, coal, natural gas)

A force that acts when two objects rub together

What the structure of an organism does

Heat energy from inside the Earth
