The amount of matter in an object or substance.   Mass  
🗑
Measurement from one place to another.   Distance  
🗑
Force that opposes the sliding motion between two touching surfaces   Friction

🗑
A simple machine that is sloping at a particular angle.   Inclined Plane (Ramp)  
🗑
Force on an object that does not change the motion of the object.   Balanced Forces  
🗑
A push or pull that changes the motion or position of an object.   Force  
🗑
The sum of all the forces acting on an object.   Net Force  
🗑
A change in an object's position, direction, or location   Motion  
🗑
Pressure of water molecules against the cell wall that allows plants to stand up straight.   Turgor Pressure  
🗑
A plant's growth in response to the force exerted upon them by gravity.   Geotropism  
🗑
Force on an object that cause change in the motion of the object.   Unbalanced Forces  
🗑
A change in the form of energy in a system.   Transformation of Energy  
🗑
Energy used by the organism to do work (energy of motion)   Mechanical Energy  
🗑
Energy generated by the organism when work is done and used by the organism to maintain a constant temperature.   Thermal Energy  
🗑
Energy stored within the bonds between atoms and molecules and is obtained from a chemical reaction or change.   Chemical Energy  
🗑
Solar energy converted to chemical energy by photosynthesis is   Chemical Energy  
🗑
What holds the atoms together in molecules   Chemical Bond  
🗑
The process by which chemical energy contained in the bonds of the food molecules break down and are converted to mechanical and thermal energy is ...   Digestion  
🗑
A chemical reaction during which plants convert energy from the sun to chemical energy.   Photosynthesis  
🗑
Contains organic carbon and possibly oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and/or sulfur   Organic Compounds  
🗑
To break down or decompose   Decay  
🗑

🗑
Organisms that eat producers or other consumers to obtain energy   Consumers  
🗑
Organisms that get their energy by feeding on producers   Primary Consumers  
🗑
Organisms that eat primary consumers   Secondary Consumers  
🗑
Organisms that get their energy only by eating secondary consumers   Tertiary Consumers  
🗑
A tool that shows how much energy transfers to the next level in a food chain.   Energy Pyramid  
🗑
How much energy is transferred to each trophic level?   10%  
🗑


   

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.
