growing plants sustainably on a trip to mars

space

atmosphere: The atmosphere is a layer of air surrounding earth and other planets. Earth's atmosphere is made up of numerous gasses such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.

gas giants:The outer planets: Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter, neptune

outer planets

rocky planets:The inner planets: Earth, Mars, Venus, Mercury

inner planets

stars give off energy in the form of light

constellations: a group of stars that form a pattern in the sky

solar system: all planets that circle 1 or more stars

chemistry

atomic number:The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.

mass number: The total amount of protons and neutrons in a nucleus of an atom.

element:Elements are the fundamentals of which matter is composed. Elements are substances made out of atoms, in which they all have the same amount of protons.

atom:Unit of a chemical element

plastics, for ex; Polyethylene

periodic table:A table showing all the chemical elements ordered by atomic number

proton:A particle with a positive charge of electricity

electron: a particle with a negative charge

neutron: a particle with no charge

physical vs chemical change

ex of chemical change: baking

ex of physical change: ice melting

qualitative vs quantitative

qualitative can be categorized based off of characteristics.

Quantitative can be measured by numbers.

electricity

hydroelectricity:Hydroelectricity is electricity generated by movement of water for example hydroelectric dams

nuclear energy:Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity

fossil fuels:Fossil Fuels are natural process such as oil, gas, coal

static electricity:An electric charge caused by friction

when circuits don't have a load they cause a short circuit

Inulator vs conductor

conductor allows energy/electricity to pass through

Insulator does not let energy/electricity to pass through

current electricity: a stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space

sustainability

renewable energy: energy made from renewable sources. Ex. solar energy

solar energy

wind energy

hydro energy

food chain:A chain of organisms that depend on each other as food. For example:

consumers

Carnivores: An organism that eats only meat (ex: Lion)

omnivore: an organism that eats plants and animals (ex: humans)

herbivore: an organism that eats only plants (ex: deer)

photosynthesis:It is a process by plants and animals and organisms to create energy.

cellular respiration

done by plants and animals

decomposers break down dead waste and turn it into soil

biosphere

lithosphere: rocky outer layer of earth

atmosphere: thin layer of air that surrounds Earth

Hydrosphere: all water on/above or below Earth's surface

inputs and outputs of photosynthesis and cellular respiration

inputs of photosynthesis: Carbon dioxide, energy, water

inputs of cellular respiration: oxygen, glucose

outputs of photosynthesis: oxygen, glucose

outputs of cellular respiration: carbon dioxide, energy, water
