Problem: - Causes them to absorb aluminum from soil - The water runs off from the soil into lakes, streams, etc - Fish and their eggs die - Frogs and plants die - Insects and other wildlife die - The ecosystem is out of balance, causing further problems - What might be the first step of the process?

A: Acid rain makes waters acidic

Problem: - The egg hatches to form a larva, also called a caterpillar - The carterpillar molts (loses its skin) many times as it grows - The caterpillar then forms itself into a pupa, or chrysalis - The caterpillar in the chrysalis begins change, a process called mmetaphorphosis - The caterpillar completes its metamorphosis and has turned into a butterfly - The adult butterfly emerges out of the chrysalis and flys away! - What might be the first step of the process?

A: The butterfly starts as an egg

Problem: - Water is absorbed through roots - Chloroplast cells in leaves contain chlorophyll - Chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight - Energy splits water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen - Oxygen gets released into atmosphere - Hydrogen and carbon dioxide used to create glucose - Glucose is food for plants. What might be the first step of the process?

A: Carbon dioxide passes through stomata in the leaves

Problem: - The oil is transported to stores - Oil is purchased by homeowners - Oil is placed into a stove in the house - The oil is lit on fire, and burns for a long time - The warm air off of the oil travels through the house - What might be the first step of the process?

A:
Oil is gathered through mining operations
