Which scientific concept is used to describe how natural events influence climate?
Photosynthesis
Carbon cycle
Scientific evidence
Water cycle
What did we use to model carbon moving from the atmosphere to the ocean?
Pipettes
Straws
Beakers
Funnels
What did you observe about carbon in the lab?
How it forms rocks
How it dissolves in water and changes acidity
How it creates energy
How it affects plant growth
What is the expected outcome after modeling the absorption of carbon dioxide by the ocean?
Recognize that carbon dioxide increases the pH of water.
Recognize that carbon cycles through systems, including the atmosphere and oceans.
Recognize that carbon dioxide has no effect on water pH.
Recognize that carbon dioxide decreases the temperature of water.
Which spheres are included in the Earth's system?
Atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere
Lithosphere, stratosphere, ionosphere, exosphere
Troposphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, exosphere
Asthenosphere, lithosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere
What should be done if bromothymol blue spills?
Ignore it
Clean it with water
Report to the teacher immediately
Use a paper towel to wipe it
What is the purpose of having a control beaker in the experiment?
To increase the temperature.
To serve as a baseline for comparison.
To change the color of the solution.
To add more carbon dioxide.
How do the results of the activity support that carbon dioxide was absorbed by the solution?
How does the input of carbon dioxide reacting with ocean water (making carbonic acid) affect shells and exterior skeletons in the ocean?
They will strengthen
They will dissolve
They will float to the top
They will change color
The air from the straw represents the (a) .
The pH indicator solution (bromothymol blue) represents the (a) which is part of the hydrosphere.
How do you think the ocean’s release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide influence climate?
