What is the study of rocks and who are the people that study rocks.
Whats the cause of fossils getting buried.
The cause is weathering where dirt and rocks falls on the fossil and buries it.
What boundary creates hills and mountains.
The boundary is the convergent boundary.
What's deposition
Finish the Sentence: The inner core is made of
Iron and nickle
How are metamorphic rocks created
Metamorphic rocks are made from heat and pressure
Fill in the blank: There are many things we can find out about the fossil like how old it is but we can also find the _______ of the animal.
The blank word is species. There are many things we can find out about the fossil like how old it is but we can also find the species of the animal.

Whats the difference between Deposition and Erosion.

What are the 3 variants of boundaries

Convection currents
How are igneous rocks Created

Paleontologist: Find and study fossils such as dinosaurs.
Tectonic plates can be as big long or wide as:
A continent.
How many types of weathering are there and what are the types.
