  • Distance is a scalar quantity representing the total distance traveled
  • Motion is associated with a change in the location or position of an object
  • Thermal equilibrium
    The bodies in contact reach equal temperature
  • Acceleration
    A vector quantity representing the rate at which an object changes its velocity
  • Parasitism is a relationship where one organism benefits and the other is harmed
  • Vector
    A quantity that has both magnitude and direction (e.g., velocity, weight, friction)
  • Hydrophytes are plants that live in water
  • Physical contact between bodies does not allow the transfer of heat
  • Commensalism is a relationship where one organism benefits and the other is not harmed
  • Duration refers to the length of day and night as seasons change
  • Amensalism is a relationship where one organism is inhibited or killed while the other is unaffected
  • Mutualism is a relationship where both participating organisms benefit
  • Displacement
    A vector quantity representing the shortest distance between initial and final position
  • is a relationship where one organism is inhibited or killed while the other is unaffected
  • Scalar quantity

    A quantity that has magnitude only (e.g., speed, mass, volume, time)
  • Heat continues to flow until the bodies reach thermal equilibrium
  • Light intensity is the amount of light that strikes the earth's surface
  • The relationship where one organism benefits and the other is harmed is called predation
  • Speed is a scalar quantity representing how fast a body is traveling
  • Light intensity
    Amount of light that strikes the earth's surface
  • Duration
    Length of day and night as seasons change
  • Primary source of energy in earth is light
  • Vector is the speed in a given direction
  • What are the 3 types of heat transfer?
    Conduction
    Convection
    Radiation
  • Neutron has zero charge 
  • Electron has negative charge
  • Proton has positive charge
  • Wave is vibration in space in time
  • Crest is the highest part of a wave 
  • Trough is the lowest part of a wave
  • Amplitude is the distance between the origin to crest/trough 
  • Wave length describes the length of the wave
  • Radio waves is used for communication
  • Microwaves is used to cook and heat food
  • Infrared is for warm or heat
  • Visible light and be detected by our eyes
  • Ultraviolet can cause sunburn and may damage our skin and eyes
