Row Race Rules1. Get in a row/group of 3-4 students2. Get out a sheet of paper3. Make sure everyone has something to write with4. Put your notes away5. When questions come up, – 1st person in the row answers 1st question and passes paper

back– 2nd person answers 2nd question and passes paper back…– 3rd person answers the 3rd question and passes paper back– 4th person gets to change 1 previous answer

6. When 4th person is done, pass the paper all the way up to the front

Round 1

1. Which ocean is the largest?2. Which ocean is covered by ice?3. Which ocean contains the mid-

ocean ridge?

Round 1 Answers

1. Which ocean is the largest?Pacific

2. Which ocean is covered by ice?Arctic

3. Which ocean contains the mid-ocean ridge?

Indian

Round 2

1. What is salinity?2. What impacts salinity?3. How did the ocean

originally get its salt?

Round 2 Answers1. What is salinity?

Amount of salt in a given amount of water

2. What impacts salinity?Evaporation - Temperature

3. How did the ocean originally get its salt?Salt from the soil dissolved into water and was transported to the oceans

Round 3

1. What is the name of the part of the water cycle where water falls from clouds?

2. What happens during condensation?

3. How was the first ocean formed?

Round 3 Answers1. What is the name of the part of the water

cycle where water falls from clouds?Precipitation

2. What happens during condensation?Water vapor turns into liquid. Forms a cloud

3. How was the first ocean formed?Volcanoes erupted putting water vapor into the atmosphere. Water vapor condensed and precipitation occurred

Round 4

1. Which letter is the seamount?2. What feature is letter D?3. How is letter G formed?

Mention boundary and plate movement

Round 4 Answers1. Which letter is the seamount?

F2. What feature is letter D?

Abyssal Plain3. How is letter G formed? Mention

boundary and plate movementMid Ocean Ridge. Divergent boundary. Plates move away from each other.

Round 5

1.What impacts deep currents?2.Why is it important to study

currents?3.What are two things that

impact surface currents?

Round 5 Answers

1. What impacts deep currents?Density – Temperature & Salinity

2. Why is it important to study currents?Important when traveling /

tracking pollution3. What are two things that impact

surface currents?Temperature, Continental Deflections, Global Winds, Earths Rotation

Round 6

1. How do we gain information about the ocean floor?

2. What equation do we use to calculate the ocean floor depth?

3. Why do we multiple time by ½?

Round 6 - Answers1. How do we gain information about the ocean

floor?Sonar & Satellites

2. What equation do we use to calculate the ocean floor depth?

D = ½ T X V3. Why do we multiple time by ½?

We record the amount of time it takes for the sonar to get to the ocean floor and back. We only want depth so we multiply by 1/2

Round 7

1. What causes salt water to sink?2. What are three different types

of pollution?3. What are two environmental

problems can an oil spill create?

Round 7 Answers1. What causes salt water to sink?

It is denser2. What are three different types of pollution?

Non-point source, trash dumping, sludge dumping, oil spill

3. What are two environmental problems can an oil spill create?Decline in Recreation, Unbalanced food chain, Animals die, Animals ingest oil

Round 8

1. Which type of ocean movement is often caused by a rise in sea level due to a hurricane?

2. What are 3 things that can cause an tsunami?

3. Draw a wave. Label crest, trough, wavelength, and wave height

Round 8 Answers1. Which type of ocean movement is often

caused by a rise in sea level due to a hurricane?Storm Surge

2. What are 3 things that can cause an tsunami?Volcano Eruption, Earthquake, Land Slide, Underwater Eruption, Meteorite

3. Draw a wave. Label crest, trough, wavelength, and wave height

Round 9

1. How many high and low tides are there a day?

2. What causes a high tide?3. Which moon phases occur

during a high tide?

Round 9 Answers1. How many high and low tides are there a

day?2 Each

2. What causes a high tide?Moons gravitational pull on the ocean. Occurs when moon is closer to a specific area

3. Which moon phases occur during a high tide?New Moon and Full Moon

Round 10

1. Describe the alignment of the sun, moon, and earth during a spring tide.

2. Why are the water levels during a spring tide significantly higher than a normal high tide?

3. What are 2 experimental errors during the density current lab

Round 10 Answers1. Describe the alignment of the sun, moon, and earth

during a spring tide.All in a single line

2. Why are the water levels during a spring tide significantly higher than a normal high tide?Moon and Sun both pull the ocean in the same direction causing a larger high tide.

3. What are 2 experimental errors during the density current labDifferent water temperatures, different amounts of salt and food coloring, pouring the water in at different speeds
