  2. 5. - A slow, low-heat form of burning without visible flames, often producing a lot of smoke.
  3. 6. - The most common extinguishing agent used in firefighting.
  4. 8. - Relating to heat or temperature, often used when describing heat transfer.
  5. 10. - The ignition and rapid spread of flames across the surface of a combustible material without ignition of its core.
  6. 11. - Combustion without visible flames, such as smoldering wood or embers.
  7. 12. - The process of raising a material’s temperature before it ignites.

  9. 15. Behavior Crossword Terms and Clues
  10. 16. - A small flame or spark used to ignite the main fire.
  11. 18. - The energy output or heat released by a fire.
  12. 19. - The initial stage of a fire, where it is just beginning and has limited heat and smoke production.
  13. 20. - The chemical process of combustion, where heat, fuel, and oxygen combine.
  14. 24. - The transfer of heat through a solid material, often causing the spread of fire through walls or floors.
  15. 25. - Combustion that occurs without an external ignition source, often due to chemical reactions or heat buildup.
  16. 26. - The final stage of a fire when fuel is depleted, and the fire's intensity decreases.
  17. 27. - The movement of flames over the ceiling during the growth stage of a fire.
  18. 28. - A sudden release of energy from rapid combustion, resulting in a blast.
  19. 29. - A substance that provides oxygen to support the combustion process.
  20. 30. - The transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, such as the heat felt from a fire without direct contact.
Down
  1. 1. - A rapid transition to a fully developed fire, where all combustible materials in a room ignite simultaneously.
  2. 2. - A violent explosion caused when oxygen rapidly enters a space filled with hot gases and smoke.
  3. 4. - The lowest temperature at which a material will vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air.
  4. 7. - The ignition of a single tree or small area of vegetation by wildfire.
  5. 9. - A contained area within a structure, where fire behavior can be influenced by air supply and heat.
  6. 13. - The ability of a material to catch fire easily.
  7. 15. - Any combustible material that can sustain a fire.
  8. 17. - The process of starting a fire.
  9. 21. - The transfer of heat by the movement of hot air or gases, a primary way that fire spreads in a structure.
  10. 22. - The process of removing smoke, heat, and gases from a burning structure.
  11. 23. - The act of extinguishing a fire or controlling its spread.
