Exploring Air and Water

What are the main components of air?

• Carbon Monoxide, Ammonia, Water Vapor

• Ozone, Methane, Sulfur Dioxide

• Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Trace Gases

• Hydrogen, Helium, Neon

Why is air essential for living beings?

• Air is primarily composed of nitrogen, which is not used by living beings.

• Air provides nutrients directly to the soil for plant growth.

• Air is necessary for photosynthesis in animals.

• Air is essential for providing oxygen for respiration and supporting life processes.

Name one gas that is found in the air.

• Oxygen

• Carbon Dioxide

• Helium

• Nitrogen

How does air help in the process of photosynthesis?

• Air supplies carbon dioxide necessary for photosynthesis.

• Air cools the plant to enhance photosynthesis.

• Air acts as a barrier to sunlight during photosynthesis.

• Air provides oxygen for photosynthesis.

What is the importance of oxygen in the air?

• Oxygen is not necessary for any form of life on Earth.

• Oxygen is primarily used for photosynthesis in plants only.

• Oxygen is a toxic gas that harms living organisms.

• Oxygen is vital for life as it supports respiration in animals and plants, and is crucial for energy production.

List two ways in which we use air in our daily lives.

• Generating electricity

• Filtering water

• Cooking food

• 1. Breathing oxygen. 2. Inflating tires and balloons.

What are the different forms of water?

• Gas (carbon dioxide)

• Solid (rock)

• Solid (ice), Liquid (water), Gas (water vapor)

• Liquid (oil)

Can you name a solid form of water?

• liquid water

• water vapor

• steam

• ice

What is the process of water turning into vapor called?

• Transpiration

• Precipitation

• Condensation

• Evaporation

Describe what happens during condensation in the water cycle.

• Condensation is when liquid water evaporates into vapor.

• Condensation is the process where water vapor cools and transforms into liquid water, forming clouds.

• Condensation occurs when clouds disperse into the atmosphere.

• Condensation is the process of water being absorbed by plants.
