Cycle of Matter-2

3. all of the water on the planet
4. cells single cells that control the opening and closing of the stomata
8. effect greenhouse gasses absorb heat and trap it in earth’s atmosphere. Greenhouse gasses act as a blanket for the earth.
9. the process of dropping off and building up layers of sediment.
10. from a gas to a solid
12. evaporation of water through plants.
16. process of squeezing deposited sediment.
17. process of hardening compacted sediment into rock.
19. hot iron and nickel center of the earth
20. fuel coal, oil and natural gas. Created from sedimentary rock created from organic matter such as plants in ancient swamps.

1. the layers of air surrounding the planet.
2. the process in which plants breath in carbon dioxide and take in water, then ‘cook’ it in sunlight to produce sugar and oxygen.
4. water storage water that is stored underground in rocks called aquifers
5. the hot interior of the earth.
6. the outer cool layer of the earth.
7. the areas of the planet that are habitable for life.
11. liquid to gas
13. in animals, the process of burning sugar in oxygen to release energy. Carbon dioxide is produced, as well.
14. where tectonic plates meet. They are the cracks between the plates.
15. opening on the underside of leaves through which water transpires
17. when fossil fuels are burned in oxygen. It produced carbon dioxide.
18. plates sections of the earth’s crust.
