| Rock cycle | A series of processes on the surface and inside Earth that slowly changes rocks from one kind to another.
🗑
|
||||
| Plate tectonics | The theory that pieces of Earth’s lithosphere are in constant motion; driven by convection currents in the mantle.
🗑
|

| Cell | the smallest unit of life that can replicate independently
🗑
|
||||
| Mantle | The layer of hot, solid material between Earth’s crust and core.
🗑
|
||||
| Sedimentary | Rock type that forms when particles from other rocks or the remains of plants and animals are pressed and cemented together.
🗑
|
||||
| Mitosis | The second stage of the cell cycle during which the cell’s nucleus divides into two new nuclei and one set of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Multicellular | Multiple cells that carry out life.
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
