Water cycle:
-condensation is when the evaporated water condenses into clouds as it rises up into the cooler air.
-water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation.

Mutations
A change in a gene (DNA), results in a mutation. There are beneficial mutations that help an
organism (think about a white fur gene for a rabbit living in the arctic). There are also mutations
that harm and can kill an organism (think about diseases like Sickle Cell Anemia). Remember,
for evolution to work you need mutations. The white fur mutation for the rabbit helps it to
survive in the snow of the Arctic because it is camouflaged.
No Genetic mutations
One Genetic Mutation

Physical weathering question: weathering is the breaking down of rocks by the movement of rocks by wind and water. Swiftly moving water can lift rocks from stream bottoms, ice wedging can cause rocks to break, plant roots can grow through cracks, waves crashing on a rocky shoreline, changing temps on rocks (freezing), high heat temps; frost.
Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, water, and biological organisms.

Mitochondria- ATP energy factories of the cells
Chloroplasts absorb sunlight .
Chloroplasts absorb sunlight and use it in conjunction with water and carbon dioxide gas to
produce food for the plant. Chloroplasts capture light energy from the sun to produce the free
energy stored in ATP and NADPH through a process called photosynthesis.
Know the process of Photosynthesis 2 questions on photosynthesis ( what is the best example of photosynthesis or something)
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.
