Science
Across
- 3. A group of planets, moons, asteroids, and comets that revolve around the sun. Earth is part of the solar system.
- 5. A tool used to see very small objects that are too small to see with our eyes alone. It magnifies objects and helps scientists study cells and tiny organisms.
- 7. The force that pulls objects toward each other. It is what keeps us on the ground and makes things fall.
- 9. The remains or traces of plants and animals that lived long ago. Fossils can provide clues about Earth's history and the types of creatures that lived in the past.
- 10. The force that attracts or repels objects made of certain materials, like iron or steel. Magnets have two ends, called poles, that have different effects.
- 11. The genetic material found in all living things. It carries the instructions for how organisms grow and develop.
- 12. An optical instrument used to observe distant objects in space, such as planets, stars, and galaxies. It helps scientists study the universe.
- 13. A form of energy that can power machines and make light. It flows through wires and can be generated from sources like batteries or power plants.
Down
- 1. A process where substances combine or break apart to form new substances. It often involves changes in color, temperature, or the release of gases.
- 2. The force that pulls objects toward each other. It is what keeps us on the ground and makes things fall.
- 3. Energy from the sun. It can be used to generate electricity or heat water. Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into usable energy.
- 4. A community of living things, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, along with their environment. They rely on each other for food and survival.
- 6. The process by which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make food. It is how plants grow and produce oxygen.
- 8. The condition of the atmosphere at a certain place and time. It includes things like temperature, precipitation, and wind.
