Change in an object’s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object
NGSS
Fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact
NGSS
Gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects
NGSS
Motion of two colliding objects
NGSS
Relationships among the energy transferred, the type of matter, the mass, and the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles as measured by the temperature of the sample
NGSS
Relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object
NGSS
Releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes
NGSS
Synthetic materials come from natural resources and impact society
NGSS
Conduct an investigation to provide evidence that living things are made of cells; either one cell or many different numbers and types of cells
NGSS
Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations
NGSS
Cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem
NGSS
Effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem
NGSS
Food is rearranged through chemical reactions forming new molecules that support growth and/or release energy as this matter moves through an organism
NGSS
Gather and synthesize information that sensory receptors respond to stimuli by sending messages to the brain for immediate behavior or storage as memories
NGSS
Patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple ecosystems
NGSS
Role of photosynthesis in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms

NGSS
Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales
NGSS
Cycling of Earth’s materials and the flow of energy that drives this process
NGSS
Cycling of water through Earth’s systems driven by energy from the sun and the force of gravity
NGSS
Develop and use a model to describe the role of gravity in the motions within galaxies and the solar system

Past plate motions
NGSS
Scale properties of objects in the solar system
NGSS
Uneven distributions of Earth’s mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes
