Big Ideas
- Energy and matter move through systems in predictable ways, impacting how those systems function.
- Understanding the flow of energy and the cycling and conservation of matter in systems helps explain patterns in science and the natural world.
Essential Questions
- How does energy flow through different systems?
- What does it mean for matter to cycle in a system?
- Why is the conservation of matter important in scientific systems?
- How can investigating energy flow and matter cycles help us understand natural and man-made systems?
- In what ways do changes in energy flow or matter cycling affect systems?
