when appropriate.
-Example of indent.
-Skip a line between topics
-Don’t skip pages
-Make visuals clear and well drawn.

465. • What’s a turnover?
• Answer: A turnover is when the team with
the ball loses possession of the ball, which
is then gained by the other team.
466. • What’s a Turnover?
• Answer: Measures how long a fund holds on
to the stocks it buys. The longer a mutual fund
holds on to a stock and the less trading the
fund does, the lower the turnover will be…

480. • What’s Lake Turnover?
• Answer: A process where the layers that
form in a lake are mixed seasonally.
481. • Lake Turnover…
– Fall - Air temperatures drop, and the upper
layers of water get cold.
– Wind and chop mix the upper layers as well
• These get colder, denser, heavier, and sink.
– Colder water displaces the water the lake
bottom forcing the lower layers to the surface.
– Winter - Ice forms layer over water. Lake
becomes layered
– Spring – Melting ice causes water to sink and
mixes layers
– Summer – Warm temperatures cause layering .

602. • Experiment from two weeks ago.
– Please set up three containers with pond or
stream water.
– Have one be control with just water, and then
have the next three have increasing amounts
of nutrients / fertilizer.
– Label each one and place near light source.
