Earth Science Part #1.3 Flashcards
These are the Seven Seas in the world:
S. N. S. N. S. I. A.
Southern Ocean
North Pacific Ocean
South Pacific Ocean
North Atlantic Ocean
South Atlantic Ocean
Indian Ocean
Arctic Ocean
This happens when ocean, the major source of water evaporates because of the Sun’s heat:
E _ _ P _ _ _ T _ _ N
E V A P O R A T I O N .
This occurs when plants loses water through their leaves:
T r a n s _ _ _ _ t i o n
T r a n s p i r a t i o n .
This occurs when the water vapor cools, forming clouds:
C o n _ _ _ s _ _ _ _ n
C o n d e n s a t i o n .
This occurs when clouds gather weight, it pours as rain, hail, or snow:
HINT: rain.
Precipitation.
This occurs when the air is so dry that when it hits a snowpack, the frozen water evaporates, going directly from the ice to vapor:
S U B _ _ M _ N _ _ _ _ N
S U B L I M I N A T I O N .
This occurs when water moves across the surface of the land and enter bodies of waters:

This occurs when groundwater is filtered in layers of soil and porous rocks:
P _ r _ _ l _ _ _ _ n
P e r c o l a t i o n .
In which part should we be concerned about the amount of precipitation and climate, TERRESTRIAL or AQUATIC?
Terrestrial.
In Aquatic, one of the things we need to be concerned of is the availability of nutrients for photosynthesis:
TRUE or FALSE?
TRUE.
These are the four major types of organisms in the aquatic food chains / webs:
P. N. B. D.
Planktons
Nektons
Benthos
Decomposers
PLANKTONS:
These are the bacteria, protists and most algae.
a) Zooplanktons
b) Phytoplanktons
a) Zooplanktons
PLANKTONS:
These feed on other planktons.
a) Zooplanktons
b) Phytoplanktons
b) Phytoplanktons
Planktons convert CO2 from the atmosphere through digestion.
What is the wrong word, and what should replace that word?
Digestion => it should be replaced with PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
They are strong and active swimmers, some examples of these are sharks, turtles, fish, squid, etc.:
