D INQ.4 Design and conduct appropriate types of scientific investigations to answer different questions. D INQ.5 Identify independent and dependent variables, including those that are kept constant and those used as controls. D INQ.6 Use appropriate tools and techniques to make observations and gather data. Earth Science Global Interdependence Science and Technology in Society – How do science and technology affect the quality of our lives? 9.9 - Some materials can be recycled, but others accumulate in the environment and may affect the balance of the Earth systems. � New technologies and changes in lifestyle can have positive and/or negative effects on the environment. How do science and technology affect the quality of our lives? 10.2 - Microorganisms have an essential role in life processes and cycles on Earth. � Understanding the growth and spread patterns of viruses and bacteria enables the development of methods to prevent and treat infectious diseases. National Standards addressed in this unit Science as Inquiry: CONTENT STANDARD A: As a result of activities in grades 9-12, all students should develop � Abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry � Understandings about scientific inquiry Science and Technology: CONTENT STANDARD E: As a result of their activities in grades 9-12, all students should develop an understanding of � Abilities of technological design � Understandings about science and technology Physics Science Content Standards Content Standard: Interaction of Energy and Matter � Waves, including sound and seismic waves, waves on water, and light waves, have energy and can transfer energy when they interact with matter 62
Electromagnetic waves result when a charged object is accelerated or decelerated. Electromagnetic waves include radio waves (the longest wavelength), microwaves, infrared radiation (radiant heat), visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays. The energy of electromagnetic waves is carried in packets whose magnitude is inversely proportional to the wavelength.
