Because matter is constantly
recycled

All organic compounds contain Carbon


Solar radiant energy is transformed into
chemical energy.
Ice wedging cracks in sidewalks/roads
 Root pry
 Rock chipping glass in a windshield
 Peeling of paint from constant rain


Gravitropism (Geotropism) – response to gravity
Phototropism – response to light
Thermotropism – response to temperature
A primary consumer which eats only plants
 Also called a herbivore
 *Be able to identify primary and secondary
consumers in a food web, chain, or
pyramid

A = producers
B = primary consumers
C = secondary consumers
A = 100% autotrophs
B = 10% herbavores

Energy

The chemical energy gets converted
into others forms of energy
Landslide/avalanche
 Volcano – Wild Fire
 Tsunami


They recycle dead organic material

Organism – an individual member of a
species

White fur – so it can hide from predators

They Migrate

Dark moths have a better chance of
surviving to produce dark-colored
offspring and dark moths will become
more abundant.

Groundwater – this water seeps into the
ground and gets stored in aquifers.

Lichens

More links in food chains and more
stability

More habitats for different species
It is a mixture of two parents
 ½ genes come from each parent
 They exhibit traits from both parents
 Leads to more diversity

Sharp claws
 Sharp pointed teeth

The presence of water
 Proximity to the sun
 Composition and existence of an
atmosphere
