Study Guide

Force

Force is applied to change an object's speed or direction of motion.

Liver

The liver produces bile which emulsifies (separates) fat.

Meteoroids

Smaller rocks shed by asteroids and comets are called meteoroids. When these rocks reach Earth's atmosphere, they burn up in the mesosphere and become meteors. If a meteor manages to reach the Earth, it is called a meteorite.

Stomach

Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.

Stratus Clouds

Clouds are categorized based on their shape, size, and altitude. Stratus clouds are low-altitude clouds characterized by horizontal layering with a broad flat base. When stratus clouds occur on the ground the result is fog.
