Battle Of The Brains (Science 6)

Reptiles are cold-blooded vertebrates. (Vertebrates have backbones.) They have dry skin covered with scales or bony plates and usually lay soft-shelled eggs.

Any matter that is solid has a definite shape and size because the atoms or molecules that compose the solid are packed closely together.

Conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of an electrical current in one or more directions. Materials made of metal are common electrical conductors.

Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid state to a gaseous state. It occurs when heat energy is applied to water, causing the water molecules to gain enough energy to break their bonds and become vapor. This allows water to move from Earth's surface back into the air. Gravity is responsible for pulling water downwards, not upwards into the air. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks and does not involve the movement of water into the air. Condensation is the process by which water vapor turns into liquid water, not the movement of water from the surface back into the air.

Soil conservation is a combination of all methods of management and land use that safeguard the soil against depletion or deterioration by natural or human-induced factors.

Heat moves in three different ways: Radiation, conduction, and convection.

Cumulus clouds are puffy clouds that sometimes look like pieces of floating cotton. The base of each cloud is often flat and may be only 1000 meters (3300 feet) above the ground.

Kinetic energy is the energy that it possesses due to its motion

A quick back and forth motion is commonly referred to as vibration. Vibration typically involves the rapid oscillation or movement of an object or a part of an object. This motion can occur in various forms, such as mechanical vibrations, sound vibrations, or even electromagnetic vibrations. Therefore, out of the given options, "vibration" is the most appropriate term to describe a quick back and forth motion.

When ice melts, its mass decreases because the solid ice is converted into liquid water. Although the number of molecules remains the same, the arrangement of molecules changes from a solid to a liquid state, resulting in a decrease in mass.

Ornithology is a branch of zoology that concerns the study of birds. The word "ornithology" derives from the ancient Greek ornis ("bird") and logos ("rationale" or "explanation").

Conduction is another way that heat moves. Heat is a form of energy, and when it comes into contact with matter (Anything that you can touch physically) it makes the atoms and molecules move. Once atoms or molecules are moving, they collide with other atoms or molecules, making them move too. In this way, the heat is transferred through matter.

The materials which do not allow heat to pass through are poor conductors such as plastic and wood. Poor conductors are known as "Insulators"

Convection happens when a substance that can flow, like water or air is heated in the presence of gravity. When air or water is in the presence of gravity, the gravity pulls all of it down. The bottom of the air or water becomes denser because it is pulled down and also pushed down by the weight of the molecules on top of it.When there is heat at the bottom of this air or water, the air or water molecules in contact with the heat start to move, and the molecules spread apart.

Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures, by removing a layer of liquid, generally one from which a precipitate has settled.
