1.2 Big Bang, Universe

This test is on the following Standard:

■ Standard ESS.1.2 Construct an argument based on evidence as to how the Big Bang theory is based on astronomical evidence of electromagnetic energy, motion of distant galaxies measured with red-shift, and composition of matter in the universe. Emphasize the astronomical evidence of the redshift of light from galaxies as an indication that the universe is currently expanding, the cosmic microwave background as the remnant radiation from the Big Bang, and the observed composition of ordinary matter of the universe, primarily found in stars and interstellar gases (from the spectra of electromagnetic radiation from stars), which matches that predicted by the Big Bang theory (3/4 hydrogen and 1/4 helium).

When completed, write your score in your Notebook Journal, along with everything you missed so you have something to study for the retest.
