3 Day 1 Aug 10 What is the environment? List several ways that environment influences the economy.

4 Day 2 Aug 14 Define the following: Biodiversity Ecological footprint Natural resource Sustainability Law of supply and demand

5 Day 2 Define the following: Biodiversity the variety of organisms in a given area, the genetic variation within a population, the variety of species in a community, or the variety of communities in an ecosystem Ecological footprint a calculation that shows the productive area of Earth needed to support one person in a particular country

6 Day 2 Natural resource any natural material that is used by humans, such as water, petroleum, minerals, forests, animals Sustainability the condition in which human needs are met in such a way that a human population can survive indefinitely Law of supply and demand a law of economics that states that as the demand for a good or service increases, the value of the good or service also increases

7 Day 3 August 25 Ch 2 section 1 vocab Observation Hypothesis Prediction Experiment Variable Experimental group Control group Data Correlation

8 Day 3 Ch 2 section 1 vocab Observation process of obtaining information by using the senses Hypothesis a theory or explanation that is based on observation and can be tested Prediction a statement made in advance that expresses the result will be obtained from testing a hypothesis, if the hypothesis is supported; the expected outcome Experiment procedure designed to test the hypothesis under controlled conditions Variable a factor that changes in the experiment Experimental group a group that is identical to the control group except for one factor Control group a group that is identical to the experimental group but nothing is changed Data the information gathered through an experiment Correlation the linear dependence between to variables

9 Day 4 August 28 Ch 2 section 2 vocab Statistics Mean Distribution Probability Risk Model Conceptual model Mathematical model Sample

10 Day 4 Statistics collection and classification of data into numbers (%) Mean average value for a set of numbers Distribution relative arrangements of numbers of a statistical population Probability chance that something will happen Sample selected to represent a population Risk probability of an unwanted outcome Model pattern, plan or representation designed to show structure or working of an object, system, or concept Conceptual model verbal or graphical representation Mathematical model one or more equations that represent the way a system or process works

11 Day 5 August 26 Ch 2 section 3 vocab Value Decision-making model

12 Day 5 Value principle or standard that an individual considers to be important Decision-making model a conceptual model that provide a systematic process for making decisions

13 Day 6 Sept 2 Where are the hottest and coldest places on Earth? Why is ocean water salty? How do cold ocean currents and warm currents interact?

14 Day 6 (3.3) Where are the hottest and coldest places on Earth? Most are located far inland, away from the ocean. The ocean has a moderating effect on temperature. Why is ocean water salty? Water dissolves salts out of rocks on land and washes them into the sea. Evaporation concentrates the salts. How do cold ocean currents and warm currents interact? They interact through convection. Warm currents rise, cold currents sink; they do not easily mix because of differing densities
