CHAPTER NEW CHAPTER Stars, Galaxies, and the Universe the BIG idea Our Sun is one of billions of stars in one of billions of galaxies in the universe. 22.1 The Sun is our local star. 22.2 Stars change over their life cycles. 22.3 Galaxies have different sizes and shapes. 22.4 The universe is expanding. CHAPTER OUTLINE CHAPTER RESOURCES 22.1 KEY CONCEPT CHAPTER HOME The Sun is our local star. The Sun produces energy from hydrogen. Energy flows through the Sun’s layers. Features appear on the Sun’s surface. VOCABULARY fusion convection corona sunspot Interior layers atmosphere solar wind CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 22.1 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT The Sun is our local star. The Sun produces energy from hydrogen. Energy flows through the Sun’s layers. Features appear on the Sun’s surface. VOCABULARY fusion convection corona sunspot solar wind SIMULATION CLASSZONE.COM View the Sun at different wavelengths. CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 22.2 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Stars change over their life cycles. Stars vary in brightness, size, color, and temperature. The development of a star depends on the mass of the star. Most stars are grouped with one or more companion stars. VOCABULARY light-year parallax nebula lower-mass star higher-mass stars main sequence neutron star supergiants giant star white dwarf black hole supernovas CHAPTER RESOURCES neutron star black hole SECTION OUTLINE 22.3 CHAPTER HOME KEY CONCEPT Galaxies have different sizes and shapes. VOCABULARY Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is a spiral galaxy. Galaxies can also be elliptical or irregular. Irregular galaxies have no definite shape. Spiral Galaxy Elliptical Galaxy quasar Irregular Galaxy VISUALIZATION CLASSZONE.COM Explore the different shapes of galaxies in the universe. CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 22.4 KEY CONCEPT CHAPTER HOME The universe is expanding. Galaxies are moving farther a part in the universe. Scientists are investigating the origin and development of the universe. VOCABULARY Doppler effect big bang CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE 22.1 KEY CONCEPT CHAPTER HOME The Sun is our local star.
