Renewable and Non Renewable Resources #2

2.6 & 2.7 Nonrenewable and Renewable Energy Resources

Recognizes or recalls specific terminology, such as: rocks, igneous, molten rock, sedimentary, fossilized organisms, metamorphic, heat, pressure, formed, physical properties, minerals, hardness, color, luster, cleavage, streak color, quartz, feldspar, mica, calcite, talc, pyrite, graphite, resources, Earth, renewable, nonrenewable, physical weathering, wind, water, ice, temperature change, plants, erosion, gravity, wind, water, ice, technology, tools, phosphate, oil, limestone, silicon, solar energy Performs basic skills:  Identify the three categories of rocks: igneous (formed from molten rock); sedimentary (pieces of other rocks and fossilized organisms); and metamorphic (formed from heat and pressure). (SC.4.E.6.1)  Identify the physical properties of common earth-forming minerals, including hardness, color, luster, cleavage, and streak color. (SC.4.E.6.2)  Recognize the role of minerals in the formation of rocks. Recognize that humans need resources found on Earth and that these are either renewable or nonrenewable. Identify resources available in Florida (water, phosphate, oil, limestone, silicon, wind, and solar energy). Describe the basic differences between physical weathering (breaking down of rock by wind, water, ice, temperature change, and plants) and erosion (movement of rock by gravity, wind, water, and ice). Identify and describe the processes of physical weathering and erosion. Investigate how technology and tools help to extend the ability of humans to observe very small things and very large things.

1. [Force] Part A: A student wants to test how friction affects a toy car. She rolls the car across a sheet of sandpaper and then across a sheet of wax paper. Which is the independent (changing) variable? A. The speed of the car B. The type of surface C. The distance traveled D. The size of the car Part B: On which surface will the car likely stop the SOONEST? A. The wax paper B. The sandpaper C. Both will be the same D. Neither surface has friction 2. [Magnets] Which of these is a measurable question for a magnet experiment? A. Are magnets more fun than springs? B. What is the prettiest color for a magnet? C. How many steel paperclips can a bar magnet lift? D. Why were magnets invented? 3. [Earth's Changes] A student observes a statue in a park that has lost its nose and has smooth edges after many years of rain and wind. What process caused this? A. Erosion B. Deposition C. Weathering D. Evaporation 4. [Earth's Changes] When a river reaches the ocean, it slows down and creates a landform called a delta by dropping sand and silt. This "dropping off" is called: A. Weathering B. Deposition C. Condensation D. Friction 5. [Resources] Why is coal considered a nonrenewable resource? A. It can be burned to make electricity. B. It is found deep underground. C. It takes millions of years to form and cannot be replaced quickly. D. It is made from ancient plants. 6. [Conservation] A school replaces all its old lightbulbs with energy-efficient LED bulbs. This is an example of: A. Weathering a resource B. Conserving a resource C. Deposition of energy D. Creating a renewable resource 7. [Aquifers] An aquifer is like a giant underground sponge. What characteristic of the rocks allows them to hold water? A. The rocks are solid and water-proof. B. The rocks are porous, with tiny spaces for water to sit. C. The rocks are magnetic and pull water toward them. D. The rocks are melted into a liquid state. 8. [Water Cycle] On a humid morning, you see dew on the grass even though it didn't rain overnight. Which part of the water cycle formed the dew? A. Evaporation B. Precipitation C. Condensation D. Transpiration 9. [Climate] Which of the following is a description of CLIMATE? A. "It is currently 85 degrees in McAllen." B. "There is a 40% chance of rain this afternoon." C. "South Texas typically has mild winters and very hot summers." D. "The wind is blowing from the North at 10 mph today." 10. [Weather/Climate] A scientist is looking at a chart that shows the total annual rainfall in a city from 1990 to 2020. What is the scientist most likely studying? A. The daily weather forecast B. The climate of the region C. The water cycle of a single pond D. The rate of erosion on a local hill
