Based on the graph, does the sunlight trend mirror the temperature trend? In other words, does sunlight increase at the same time as the temperature increases?
Compare the amount of energy entering and exiting Earth's system. Based on this information what do you think will happen to Earth's temperature?
Increase
Decrease
Stay the same
The arrows represent the amount of energy entering and exiting a system. The larger the arrow the more energy, the smaller the arrow the less energy. What would happen to the temperature of the system in the diagram shown?

If Earth's temperature is decreasing, what is happening to the amount of energy entering and exiting Earth's system?
More energy is entering than exiting
More energy is exiting than entering
The amount of energy entering and exiting is the same
During the Eocene Period, all of Earth's glaciers were melted. What probably caused this?
There was more energy in Earth's system because more energy was absorbed by Earth's surface because more energy entered Earth's system than exited
There was less energy in Earth's system because less energy was absorbed by Earth's surface because more energy entered Earth's system than exited
There was more energy in Earth's system because more energy was absorbed by Earth's surface because more energy exited Earth's system than entered
Eleanor wants to do an experiment in order to analyze what is in the atmosphere. Based on your experiences in the SIM and class discussion, What do you think she will find?
The atmosphere is made of one kind of gas.
The atmosphere is made of different kinds of gases that form neat, separated, layers.
The atmosphere is made of a mix of different kinds of gases.
Scientists found evidence of a time period 3 Billion years ago when less energy entered the Earth system than exited. What is one change to the atmosphere that could have caused this, and how did it change the amount of energy in the Earth System?
Methane increased leading to less energy in the Earth system and less energy absorbed by Earth's surface.
Methane decreased leading to more energy in the Earth system and more energy absorbed by Earth's surface.
Methane decreased leading to less energy in the Earth system and less energy absorbed by Earth's surface.
