The most accepted science theory states that the universe expanded explosively from a hot, dense chaotic mass. Gravity causes clouds of the lightest elements to condense into massive bodies. The mass and density of these bodies may become great enough for nuclear fusion to occur, creating stars. Nuclear fusion releases energy and fuses light elements into heavier elements. Some stars explode, producing clouds of heavy elements from which other stars, planets, and celestial bodies may form.

10 Science Benchmark: The theory of plate tectonics explains the features of Earth s surface, earthquakes and volcanoes. Plates move very slowly, pressing against one another, sliding past one another, and pulling apart. The internal energy of the Earth drives the movement of the plates. The slow movement of materials within Earth results from heat flowing out from the deep interior and the action of gravity on regions of different density. Evidence for plate tectonics includes the spreading of the seafloor, the fossil record, and patterns and distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes. Processes in Earth affect the atmosphere, biosphere, and hydrosphere. Processes occurring in these spheres affect the geosphere. Standard III: Students will understand that gravity, density, and convection move Earth s plates and this movement causes the plates to impact other Earth systems.

17 Science Benchmark: The sun is the major source of Earth s energy. Some of the solar radiation that reaches Earth is reflected, but most is absorbed. Gases in the atmosphere trap some of the heat energy and delay its radiation into space. This greenhouse effect retains energy longer in the Earth system. Currents in the atmosphere and hydrosphere distribute solar heat energy. These currents help determine global and local weather and climate patterns. Photosynthesis uses a small but vital part of the total solar energy for the biosphere. This energy is stored in the chemical bonds of sugars formed in plants. Standard VI: Students will understand the source and distribution of energy on Earth and its effects on Earth systems. Objective 1: Describe the transformation of solar energy into heat and chemical energy on Earth and eventually the radiation of energy to space. a. Illustrate the distribution of energy coming from the sun that is reflected, changed into heat, or stored by plants. b. Describe the pathways for converting and storing light energy as chemical energy (e.g., light energy converted to chemical energy stored in plants, plants become fossil fuel). c. Investigate the conversion of light energy from the sun into heat energy by various Earth materials. d. Demonstrate how absorbed solar energy eventually leaves the Earth system as heat radiating to space. e. Construct a model that demonstrates the reduction of heat loss due to a greenhouse effect.
