Topography
is reshaped by the weathering of rock and soil and by the
transportation
and deposition of sediment.

|
Heat
(Thermal Energy)
|
Heat
moves in a predictable flow from warmer objects to cooler
objects until all the objects are at the same temperature.

Energy
in the Earth System
|
Many
phenomena on Earth’s surface are affected by the transfer
of energy through
radiation and convection currents.

Ecology
(Life Science)
|
Organisms in ecosystems exchange energy
and nutrients among themselves and
with the environment.
|
|
|
|
Resources
|
Sources
of energy and materials differ in amounts, distribution, usefulness,
and the
time required for their formation.
|
|
|
Investigation
and Experimentation
|
Scientific
progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting
careful investigations.
