Rock Type formed from heat and pressure deep inside the Earth
Metamorphic
On vacation at a lake, Saira’s mom sees an interesting-looking rock formation. Saira just learned about rocks in geology class and tells her mom that the formation is made of gneiss, a type of metamorphic rock.
How did this metamorphic rock form?
(Slide 3)
D.) It was heated and put under pressure
Air mass type that has low/dry humidity
Continental
Slide 10
C) The air parcel was warmer, so it LOST energy and caused condensation
Slide 15
D) Add a plant!!
Transpiration is for plants :)
___________ moves rock down, below Earth’s outer layer.
Subduction
Slide 4
A.) Landslides have a much smaller spatial impact than tectonic plate movements
Air mass type that is wet/high humidity
Maritime
Slide 11
A) STORM 1: Parcel was warmer, it rose and LOST energy
Slide 17
A) It affects the direction and movement of wind currents.
Slide 2
B.) Deformation (caused by heat and pressure)
Slide 5
C.) Plate tectonics activity along the convergent plate boundary
Slide 8
Maritime
Slide 12
D) Wind pushed the parcel up, where it lost more energy
Slide 16
B) Gas --> Liquid and Liquid --> Gas
True or False
Rocks can turn into any other type of Rock (Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic) if under the right conditions to transform.
Slide 6
C.) Past geoscience processes, such as volcanic activity and tectonic movements, cause iron ore to form in certain areas.
Slide 9
Continental
Slide 13
Storm 2 - it is warmer so it rose higher and lost more energy
Slide 18
B) The uneven heating of the Earth’s surface influences how ocean currents form and move
Slide 1
B.) The igneous rock could undergo great pressure and heating.
AND
D.) The igneous rock could be transformed into sediment, then sedimentary rock, and then to metamorphic rock through heat and pressure.
Slide 7
C. The petroleum formed after an ancient ocean organism's remains were exposed to intense pressure and extremely high temperatures as the Atlantic Ocean floor sank.
Fill in the blank:
Liquid water _______ and turns into water vapor. This water vapor cools / condenses into a _____, which will eventually come down as __________.
1. Evaporates
2. Cloud
3. Precipitation
Slide 14
C) Air Parcel 1 - It is warmer so it will rise higher & lose more energy
