WorksheetsScience Unit 5 Review
Total questions: 10
Worksheet time: 21mins
If students are investigating different textures of soil, what would be the best procedure to follow?
Moisten the samples and rub them with their fingers
Attempt to grow plants in each of the soils
Compare each of the soil samples on a color chart
Pour water into each of the samples
Students poured 100mL of water through a soil sample. They collected and measured the water that drained out of the soil. The water collected a volume of 80mL. How much water did the soil retain (hold)?
20mL
60mL
80mL
100mL
Nonrenewable resources include:
Oil
Natural Gas
Minerals
All of the above
Renewable resources include:
All of the below
Wind
Water
Plants/Animals
Fossil fuels form when organic matter is buried and exposed to heat and pressure for millions of years. Fossil fuels are nonrenewable because--
They are used to produce heat
They take a long time to form
They form organic matter
They can be found underground
Conservation means--
To use fossil fuels as fast as you can
To mix to substances together
To plant trees
To prevent the wasteful use of resources
Which is an example of conservation?
Wasting water
Using solar panels to generate electricity
Putting gas in your car
Leaving all of the lights on at your house
Which type of soil is best for growing plants?
HIgh in nutrients, retains water well
Low in nutrients, retains water well
High in nutrients, does not retain water
What property of soil is the student most likely examining with this procedure?
How much water is needed to dissolve soil
The amount of time it takes for soil to dry
The difference in texture
How well different soils retain (hold) water
Using public transportation rather than cars helps conserve nonrenewable resources because public transportation--
Requires the removal of trees to makes roads
Needs more water to maintain than the same number of cars
Uses less fossil fuels to move people from place to place
Involves using much more paper for printed materials
