B. Butterfly

A butterfly is a invertebrate arthropod with four wings and six legs.

C. Circuit

A circuit is one continuous flow of energy, it is the complete path of an electric current including usually the source of electric energy.

D. Doldrums

The doldrums are a moist, low pressure zone near the equator. There have very little wind in this area of our atmosphere.

E. Electromagnet

An electromagnet is a nothing but a piece of iron with piece of wire wrapped
around it creating an electrical charge when there is a closed circuit. This charge makes a nonmagnetic object magnetic.

F. Force

Force is energy exerted. When using simple machines, you are trying to limit the force used by humans because exerting too much energy causes exhaustion.

G. Global Winds

Global winds are winds that are consistent and are not local, but worldwide. These winds can be tracked and are predictable.

H is for Heat

Heating is a thermal transfer of energy, the heat of one object moving to a colder one.

I. Inclined plane

The inclined plane is a simple machine made from a slanted surface and can be used to decrease ether effort used to lift objects.

J is for Joules.

Joules are a unit of measuring the amount of work(force*distance). When using simple machines, you want to decrease the amount of joules you exert.

K is for Komodo Dragon.

Komodo Dragons are vertebrate reptilian animals who have backbones.

L is for Lysosomes.

Lysosomes are a vital part of an animal's cell that breaks down food and wastes.

M is for motor.

A motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

N is for Nocturnal.
Being nocturnal is an animal behavior for being active at night but sleeping in the day.

O is for oxygen.

Oxygen is a necessary element in the lives of almost to all organisms. One of the Earths most plentiful gasses, Oxygen goes through many natural and man made cycles each day.

P. Pulley

A pulley is a simple machine used to lift heavy objects with string and grooved wheel and are activated by pulling

Q is for Quail.
A quail is a vertebrate animal with hollow bones and wings that help it fly.

R is for Radiant Energy.
Radiant energy is the energy of light, one of the several types of energy.

S is for species.
Species are not only a way to define different types of organisms, but also the lowest of the seven levels of classification; coming after Genus ,family, order, class, phylum, and kingdom.

T is for thigmotropism.
Thigmotropism is a plant's response to stimuli through movement.though many plants have this reaction, some don't.

U is for Ultraviolet Radiation.
Ultraviolet radiation(UV rays) is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than visible light. It is light energy created by an electromagnet.

V is for vertebrate.
A vertebrate animal is an animal with a backbone and an internal skeleton.

W is for warm front. Warm fronts often bring many hours of rainy or snowy weather. But when the warm front passes, the air left behind is warmer.

X is for xylem.
The xylem is the tubes in a plant's vascular system that transports water and nutrients.

Y is for Yucca.
Yucca is a tall angiosperm plant with a vascular system to transport water, food, and nutrients.

Z is for Zebra.
A zebra is a vertebrate mammal that lives in Savannah's and has a backbone.
