For your final blog assignment, you will tell me about your favorite topic from each of the units of study in Earth Science.
1. Astronomy
2. Weather and Climate (Earth's Atmosphere)
3. Geology
4. Weathering and Erosion
5. Earth's Waters
1. Astronomy- My Favorite subject in astronomy was the stars, when we learned about the different sizes or colors of the stars, We learned that the bigger the star the more explosive it will be when it dies. Did you know that the sun is a star? This is true the sun is in fact a big star, but some stars are much greater in size. We also learned about the wavelength and the visible lights. What visible lights does the human eye see? The human eye see's visible light. I would say that Astronomy is the best in science.
2. Weather and Climate- The best section of weather and climate would have to be weather patterns. The chapter talks about types of air masses, how they move, types of fronts, and cyclones and anticyclones. A short summary of the chapter would be hot air moves up and cooler air moves down. And the types of storms, and how they form.
3. Geology- Many rocks or minerals in the earth brake down or gather together. Al so many chemicals when mixed could create a good solution, or a dangerous explosion. as sediments brake and make layers in the earth. but the earth just keeps recycling it's self it never stops, grows, or shrinks.
4. Weathering and Erosion- AS the earth ages so does all the sediments. many rocks road away because of wind or water or heat. As the rock or sediment aroad away it keeps dividing into smaller and smaller pieces. Water and metal equals rust witch is a type of weathering. When the tectonic plates move together or apart it's called erosion.
5. Earth's waters- Many of the oceans are created my lakes or ponds or the snow melting on high mountains. The melted snow from the pikes are called tributaries. When two tributaries are formed from one at first it's called a divide. Most of the water evaporates, but about not even half water comes back.
All in all keep our mother earth safe, clean, and friendly. Recycle, don't litter, and be responsible! = ]
