  • what is matter
    anything that takes up space and can be weighed
  • what is the photosynthesis equation
    carbon doixide+water-oxygen+glucose
  • respiration equation
    oxygen+glucose-carbon dioxide+water+energy
  • what is a carbon sink
    any feature of the environment that obsorbes carbon,keeping it from the atmosphere
  • geological vs biological
    geological is a long term cycle that occurs over millions of years and biological is a short term cycle that occurs over days,weeks,months and years.
  • what is the greenhouse effect
    the process through heat is trapped near the earths surface by the greenhouse gas
  • natural greenhouse effect vs enhanced greenhouse effect examples
    nge=water vapour,keeps temps stable over long periods of time ege=caused by humans,more co2 from burning fossil fuels,causes global warming
  • what is global warming
    an increase in the average global temps caused by an increase in greenhouse gases
  • carbon cycle
    .
  • examples of lithospheres
    soil,rocks,metals,vallys
  • examples of atmosphere
    clouds,air,co2
  • examples of hydrospheres
    anything to do with water
  • examples of biosphere
    humans
  • solar system
    .
  • how does the lithosphere,the atmosphere,the hydrosphere and the biosphere interact

    .
  • what are celestial bodies
    a natural object outside of the earths sphere
  • what are different types of celestial bodies
    stars,planets,solar,systems,galaxies and black holes
  • explain the big bang theory
    is a physical theory that describes how the universe expanded from a primordial state of high density and temperature.
