How do scientists use models to study natural systems?

• Models are used to directly copy natural systems.

• Models simplify and represent systems to help scientists understand and predict behavior.

• Models are exact replicas of natural systems.

• Models are only used in engineering, not science.

What is the purpose of creating boundaries in a system?

• To isolate the system from the rest of the universe

• To help scientists focus on specific parts and interactions within the system

• To prevent changes in the system

• To increase the complexity of the system

Which of the following is NOT an example of a model scientists might use?

• A computer simulation of weather patterns

• A map showing the location of earthquakes

• A scale model of the solar system

• A random collection of data without any organization

Why do scientists use cause and effect relationships when studying systems?

• To manipulate systems

• To predict how changes in one part of the system might affect other parts

• To avoid errors in experiments

• To create boundaries for the system

Which statement best describes the Earth system?

• The Earth system is static and never changes.

What is a subsystem?

• A smaller system that operates independently of larger systems

• A part of a larger system that interacts with other parts of the system

Why is it important to study natural systems?

• To understand how parts of the system interact and affect the environment

• To control the natural systems and prevent change

• To create exact replicas of these systems

• To study systems in isolation from their surroundings
