An event where shifting of light happened and causes longer wavelength. (red shift, cosmic radiation, spectrum)
This is the most accepted modern theory on the formation of the universe. (Big Bang, Nebular, Steady State)
This theory believed that the Sun was created due to contraction of nebula or large masses of cloud and eventually
forming into a disk (protosun). (Encounter, Protoplanet, Nebular)
In this theory/belief, it is believed that the Earth is the center of the universe. (Heliocentrism, Pinocentrism,
Geocentrism)
He believed that the universe is static-neither contracting nor expanding. (Aristotle, Newton, Einstein)
This is composed mainly of the crust and the upper mantle. (Asthenosphere, Lithosphere, Anthrosphere)
A mechanism/process of trapping heat from the sun by the atmosphere. (reflection, Greenhouse effect, radiation)
It is the layer where cloud formation occurs. (troposphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, exosphere)
The Earths subsystem that includes the different bodies of water. (hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere)
An Earths layer that is composed mainly of iron and nickel in liquid state. (mantle, inner core, outer core)
It refers to the color of the mineral in its powdered form. (streak, color, cleavage, powdery color)
These are group of materials or substances that do not have carbon in it. (chemical, mineral, organic, inorganic)
It describes the appearance of light reflected from a mineral surface. (metallic, luster, non-metallic, vitreous)
This is the ability of the mineral to react with acids. (talc, magnetism, effervescence, base)
A hot material that comes from the deep layers of the Earth. (igneous, lava, magma, crust)
