| Is energy converted or transferred from the battery to a flashlight? | Transferred |
| Is energy converted or transferred from chemical energy in the battery to light energy in the flashlight? | Converted |
| The Law of Conservation of Energy states that: | Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one object to another |
| ______ energy in food is converted to _______, _______, and _________ in our bodies | Chemical; motion; sound; thermal |
| A photo taken of the Pole Star with long exposure shows all the stars going around the pole star. SCIENTIFIC CLAIM, EVIDENCE, OR REASONING? | EVIDENCE |
| During a plant study, We saw an average of 0.5 mm growth in height in a 24 hour period. We took measurements at the same time each day for each plant. Therefor the evidence supports the claim. SCIENTIFIC CLAIM, EVIDENCE, OR REASONING? | REASONING |
