Question 1

Where is water stored?

Answer 1

Oceans
clouds
springs
ice and snow
underground
air

Question 2

How does water move? Give examples

Answer 2

It moves due to heat (the sun)
For example:
A runoff
Evaporation
Rain
Rivers
Streams

Question 3

What is a Reservoir?

Answer 3

Stored water

Question 4

What is a water transfer?

Answer 4

Moving water

Question 5

The water the dinosaurs drink is the same as water we drink today. How can this be?

Answer 5

This is because of the water cycle. When the dinosaurs are done, drinking water, and pees, it is then evaporated and reproduced from precipitation again, and again

Question 6

What causes the water to move up towards the sky?

Answer 6

The sun

Question 7

What causes water to fall towards the Earth?

Answer 7

Gravity

Question 8

What is happening on the molecular level between the sun and gravity?

Answer 8

Gravity keeps water down while the sun (also made out of heat) causes the water to evaporate, which makes the water go up

Question 9

What is the difference between the two?
(Sun and Gravity)

Answer 9

Heat from the sun is a type of energy and gravity is a type of force

Question 10

How does the molecular level help us make sense on a larger scale?

Answer 10

It helps us to understand the phase changes of the water

Question 11

What happens to the water molecules when thermal energy a.k.a. heat is removed?

Answer 11

• It changes to a solid
• The molecules come closer together and slow down
• It gets more dense

Question 12

What happens to water molecules when thermal energy is added?

Answer 12

• The water becomes a gas
• The molecules start to move, farther apart and move faster
• It gets less dense
