Question
Answer
What do 2 plastic spheres represent?   mini greenhouses  
🗑
What does the lamp bulb represent?   the sun  
🗑
what type of energy does the 60 watt bulb produce?   short waves  
🗑
what instrument is taped to the inside of each sphere?   thermometer  
🗑
what was the problem to solve?   does the earth warm up faster without light  
🗑
what was the variable in the experiment   the amount of light  
🗑
what was the control procedure in the experiment?   the sphere without the light - nothing to vary  
🗑
What was the experimental procedure?   adjust the amount of light  
🗑
What does the term controlled conditions refer to?   the conditions that were thought about and controlled  
🗑
How to control time?   same clock and same intervals  
🗑
How to control plastic spheres   same size and same materials  
🗑
how to control lighting   same distance and same size bulb  
🗑
how to control temperature readings   same brand, same reader and same scale  
🗑
how to control amount of short wave infrared   size of bulb and distance to the greenhouse  
🗑
how to control instrument error   use the same instrument  
🗑
What other factors were controlled?   classroom, lighting, room temperature  
🗑
What did you do to prepare the temperature readings before showing them on your graph?   find the averages for the control and experimental procedure  
🗑
What is a clear title for the graph?   Comparing Greenhouse Experiments  
🗑
What was the source of information used on your data sheet?   G block science 2013  
🗑
What numbers did you put on the x-axis (cause)   time (2, 4, 6, ...)  
🗑
What numbers did you put on the y-axis (effect)   temp in celsius (9, 12, 15, ...)  
🗑
Describe what happen in the control procedure greenhouse after 20 minutes/?   the temperature basically didn't change (only a couple of degrees)  
🗑
Describe what happened in the experimental procedure greenhouse after 20 minutes?   The temperature raised a lot  
🗑
summarize what happens inside of a greenhouse when sunlight shines on it.   The inside of the greenhouse heats up by short waves The short waves bounce off the objects and give off long waves. The long waves are trapped causing the greenhouse to warm up.  
🗑
What does the term greenhouse effect refer to   It is a house for plants that traps heat and humidity  
🗑
what does the term global warming refer to   When the atmosphere and earth's heat increase that effects changes to the climate that may result in a greenhouse effect. (the earth is warming up faster than it is supposed to)  
🗑
Scientists believe that the earth has always been warmed by the sun and the Earth has always been acting like a greenhouse. Why are scientists worried about current global warming?   Everything is heating up which makes ice melt and floods happen  
🗑
