Chapter 2 Earth’s Physical Systems: Matter, Energy, and Geology Case Study: The Tohoku Earthquake (Summarize) Essential Questions 1. What are the parts of an atom? 2. What are the macromolecules and their function? 3. How do the 2 laws of thermodynamics affect available energy? 4. How do the 3 types of plate boundaries move? 5. What are the layers of the atmosphere and what occurs in each? Matter Law of conservation of matter Atoms Protons Neutrons Electrons Ions Compounds v molecules pH pH scale acids v base Macromolecules Proteins Nucleic acids Carbohydrates Lipids Energy Potential v Kinetic 1st Law of Thermodynamics 2nd Law of Thermodynamics Energy efficiency Autotrophs Heterotrophs Geology Earth’s layers Core Mantle - Asthenosphere - Lithosphere Crust Plate tectonics Rock cycle Types of plate boundaries - Divergent - Convergent - Transform Earthquakes Volcanoes landslides Type of rocks - igneous Atmosphere - metamorphic - sedimentary Layers of the atmosphere - troposphere - stratosphere - mesosphere - thermosphere Convection currents - Hadley cells Ferrel cells Polar cells Coriolis effect Chapter 5 Env. Systems & Ecology Case Study: The Vanishing Oysters of the Chesapeake Bay (summarize) Essential Questions 1. What are the properties of a system? 2. What are ecosystem services? 3.
