  1. What do we need for life like us? planet star What is a star needed for? energy

  2. Solar Energy plants solar energy used to make complex molecules food animals eat plants for energy wood solar energy stored in chemical form fossil fuels coal oil nat gas plants and animals hydroelectric sun lifts water wind sun drives wind

  3. Solar Energy nuclear fission uranium underground supernova geothermal Iceland Calistoga geysers planet tidal high tide fills bay low tide empties moon What doesn’t come from our environment?

  4. temperature/speed average speed some slower some faster some much faster temperature bombardment pressure blown
