Water Systems - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. A human activity that can play a role in ice melting
    Deforestation
  2. The general term for water in the ground
    Groundwater
  3. The ocean is called this because it absorbs a lot of heat
    Heat sink
  4. This decomposes naturally, like food waste and paper
    Organic Waste
  5. These are huge areas of ice that covers land at Earth's poles
    Polar Ice cap
  6. Wind is the simpler term for this
    Convection currents
  7. One of the last steps in the water treatment process. Involves adding chemicals to remove bacteria
    Disinfection
  8. Watering crops using pipes/sprinklers.
    Irrigation
  9. The process of a gas turning into a liquid because of the loss of thermal energy
    Condensation
  10. Water that evaporates from any part of plants/vegetation
    Transpiration
  11. 1st step in cleaning dirty water. It's when chemicals are added that cause dirt particles to stick together
    Coagulation
  12. The term for the upper level of groundwater in an area. It rises and falls
    Water table
  13. Water that has little to no salt in it
    Freshwater
  14. The process of water soaking into the ground
    Infiltration
  15. Material used in a filter to help clean water
    Filter Media
  16. What we call a long-term shift in the Earth's temperatures and climate
    Climate Change
  17. These places usually have moderate climates because of their proximity to oceans
    Coastal communities
  18. This process of the water cycle causes vapour
    Evaporation
  19. Rain, snow, sleet, and hail are examples of this
    Precipitation
  20. When glaciers melt, what happens to sea levels?
    Sea Levels rise
  21. The clumps that form when tiny particles stick together in water treatment
    Floc
  22. This word means the process of removing particles from water by allowing them to settle at the bottom of a tank
    Sedimentation
  23. This refers to a group of natural or man-made parts that work together to move, store, and clean water
    Water System
  24. Water that flows over the land’s surface instead of being absorbed into the ground
    Runoff
  25. This word refers to environmental conditions that change from day to day
    Weather
  26. This word refers to the average weather conditions over a period of at least 30 years.
    Climate
  27. Carbon dioxide is an example of this
    Greenhouse Gas
  28. When a solid immediately turns into a gas
    Sublimation
  29. This term refers to the amount of heat needed to make something warmer
    Heat capacity
  30. A process in water treatment where clumps of dirt are formed and mixed to stick to each other
    Flocculation
  31. This does not decompose well in nature, like plastic
    Inorganic Waste
  32. This is a place where water collects and drains into a common body of water
    Watershed
  33. When an action causes a result that goes and makes the action even stronger than before
    Feedback loop
  34. When a gas immediately turns into a solid
    Deposition
