Up! Up! Up! From growing plants in towers to building and launching rockets, today’s science is totally up in the air.

“6-8.LS1.C Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms.
LO.1.A.8.a Recognize that most plants and animals require food and oxygen (needed to release the energy from that food) ME.2.D.7 c. Explain that a change in motion is the result of an unbalanced force acting upon an object
d. Explain how the acceleration of a moving object is affected by the amount of net force applied and the mass of the object ME.F.2.8.a Identify the evidence of different energy transformations (e.g., explosion of light, heat, and sound, temperature change, electrical charge) that may occur as chemical energy is released during a chemical reaction”
