- An area of low pressure causes rotation - Several thunderstorms come together around this area - The storm is fed by rising air from warm ocean water evaporating - When the wind speeds reach 74 mph the storm is considered a hurricane. What might be the first step of the process?
Ans: Thunderstorms form over the ocean

- Bees gather nectar from flowers - The bees evaporate the nectar by passing it back and forth to each other - The evaporation turns the nectar into sugary honey - The bees chew the honey until it turns into moldable wax - The bees mold the wax into hexagonal (six sided) cylinders - Thousands of these hexagonal cylinders put together form the hive - What might be the first step of the process?
Ans: Bees find a place for the hive, such as a rock crevice or tree branch

- Water is put in pipes in the coal-fired steam station - The coal is crushed - The coal is moved into a boiler along with hot air - The water is moving through pipes in the boiler - The steam from the water is blown against a turning mechanism - The force of the steam makes the mechanism turn - The mechanism generates electricity. What might be the first step of the process?
Ans: Coal is put in a coal-fired steam station

- The roots absorb water and minerals from the soil - This combination of water and minerals flows from the stem into the leaf - Carbon dioxide enters the leaf - Light, water and minerals, and the carbon dioxide all mix together - This mixture forms sugar (glucose) which is what the plant eats - Oxygen goes out of the leaf through the stomata - What might be the first step of the process?
Ans: Chloroplasts in the leaf of the plant traps light from the sun
