| A closed circuit is like dead end street because | The source of current, such as a battery, is transferred to the load (such as a home appliance) and does not go back through a conductor (such as a wire) back to the source of current (generator/battery) |
| An open circuit is like a circle because | the energy travels from the source of current, through the conductor to the load and back through the conductor to the source of current |
| Can a series circuit energize one or more than one load (appliances, lights, etc) | more than one |

| The nitrogen cycle (show chart) | |
| Density is how compact a liquid or solid is. Would a denser object float or sink when added to a less dense object | Sink |
| What happens to the water molecules when it is frozen? | They expand and become less dense |
| Why does ice float in a cup of water? | Because it is less dense and takes up more surface area than if it wasn't frozen |
| wood, minerals, coal, natural gas, nuclear, oil | Raw materials |
