| 807429366 | An infectious disease is one that | is caused by pathogens | |
| 807429367 | Viruses differ from other types of pathogens because pathogens are alive and viruses are | nonliving | |
| 807429368 | Parasites and viruses are similar to each other because they both infect | host | |
| 807429369 | How is malaria able to cause symptoms in so many parts of the body? | A parasite enters the circulatory system and travels to all parts of the body. | |
| 807429370 | The body's ability to destroy pathogens before they can cause disease is called | immunity | |
| 807429371 | A person's weight is the measure of | gravity | |
| 807429372 | A change or signal in the environment that can make an organism react is | impulse | |
| 807429373 | The central nervous system is made up of ___________ and ______________ | the brain; the spinal cord | |
| 807429374 | The thick column of nerves that links the brain to most of the nerves in the peripheral nervous system is the | spinal cord | |
| 807429375 | When an individual's body becomes able to reproduce this main event is known as | puberty | |
| 807429376 | Eggs are produced in the | ovaries | |
| 807429377 | Where does a fertilized egg develop after it leaves the fallopian tubes | the uterus | |
| 807429378 | Looking at the graph "Motion of Two Joggers" ISN page 8, which jogger shows a constant speed | Kathy | |
| 807429379 | Explain the motion for Rachel at 8 minutes. | she would have jogged 700 meters | |
| 807429380 | Would the motion for Rachel be the same at 8 minutes if this were a speed versus time graph? Explain. Use ISN 10 for help. | No, because her motion would stay constant | |
| 807429381 | The steepness of a line graph is called the | slope | |
| 807429382 | Write the formula for speed | Distance/Time = Speed | |
| 807429383 | Use the formula for speed. What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 100 m in 25 s? | The speed is 4 miles per hour | |
| 807429384 | When you push pairs of surfaces together with the same amount of force, what kind of surface would cause greater friction? | Sandpaper | |
| 807429385 | Inertia is not a force, name the forces that act at a distance. | Electrical, Gravitational, and magnetic | |
| 807429386 | Name the contact forces | applied, normal and friction | |
| 807429387 | The strengths of two forces are added when two forces act in the same | direction | |
| 807429388 | When a balanced force acts on an object, the force does not change the ____________ of the object. | Mass | |
| 807429389 | The Law of Gravity recognizes that every object exerts force on every object and that the strength of the force is dependent upon what two things? | mass and distance above ground | |
| 807429390 | Which object has a greater force upon the other? Two same size objects or two objects where one has more mass. | Two objects where one has more mass | |
| 807429391 | Which object has a greater force upon the other? Two same size objects that have a greater distance between them or two same size objects that are close together? | Two same size objects that are close together | |
| 807429392 | Heat transfer between two substances that are in direct contact is called | conduction | |
| 807429393 | Forces can be added together only if they are acting on the __________ object. | same | |
| 807429394 | What is the main way heat is transferred in the troposphere? | Convection | |
| 807429395 | The condition of the Earth's atmosphere at a particular time and place is | weather | |
| 807429396 | The three mechanisms by which heat is transferred through the Earth's system are | conduction, convection, radiation | |
| 807429397 | Water vapor enters the atmosphere by what process? | transpiration | |
| 807429398 | What is the energy source of the water cycle? | the sun | |
| 807429399 | How is the heat transferred from the sun to Earth? | radiation | |
| 807429400 | The movement of thermal energy from a warmer object to a cooler object is called ______ | heat transfer | |
| 807429401 | Heat is transferred from one particle of matter to another within an object or between two objects in a process called | conduction | |
| 807429402 | The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves is called __________ | radiation | |
| 807429403 | heat transfer occurs only from | hot to cold | |
| 807429404 | Warm ocean currents move to cooler ocean regions of the Earth. What means of energy transfer does this? | convection | |
| 807429405 | Energy from the sun warms the air above land and as the air warms, it rises in the atmosphere. Along a coastline area, cooler air from above the ocean flows in toward the land, to replace the rising warm air. What type of energy transfer is described by these processes? | convection | |
| 807429406 | What process allows water from lakes, oceans, rivers, and the atmosphere to enter into the water cycle? | evaporation | |
| 807429407 | The major source of energy to power the water cycle is __________ | the sun. |
