    The document contains a midterm review with 36 multiple choice questions covering various topics in science. It asks about the three branches of science, definitions of scientific theories and laws, the differences between theories and laws, experiments and observations, independent and dependent variables, constants, forms of energy transfer like conduction, convection, radiation, the electromagnetic spectrum, frequency and wavelength, refraction, reflection, absorption, and scattering. It also contains questions about the Earth's structure, continental drift theory, mid-ocean ridges, and heat transfer within the mantle.
