ROCKS AND BLOCKS
100
this force causes a convergent boundry
What is compression
100
DAILY DOUBLE! useful to scientists (i repeat scientists) to help them find the order of rock layers.
What is index fossil
100
this is the second layer of earth's layers
What is asthenosphere
100
geologists use these to help them order rock layers
What is fossils
100
These make up rocks
What is a mineral
200
these two geologic category names name destroyed and created land
What is constructive or destructive
200
fossils are this compared to the age of the rock they are in
What is same age
200
this is a constructive geologic activity (the ring of fire)
What is volcanic eruption
200
this is the rock a geologist would usually find a fossil in
What is sedimentary (rocks)
200
DAILY DOUBLE! These make up earth's lithosphere BUT can range to be various sizes, even a grain of sand
What are rocks
300
rocks formed outside of earth
What is extrusive
300
the reason why a scientist might find the same fossil on opposite sides of the ocean
What is the theory of plate tectonics
300
rocks formed inside earth
what are intrusive (rocks)
300
the 6 parts needed in a well designed experiment. (geologists always do this)
What is independent and dependent variable, control group, experimental group, constants, multiple trials, specific directions, and repeats.
300
this type of rock is formed during seafloor spreading
What are igneous rocks
400
destructive geologic activity (ring of fire)
What is earthquakes
400
the rock that is made with heat and pressure
What is metamorphic
400
this causes plates to move
What is convection currents in the asthenosphere
400
this scale is used to tell the hardness of a rock
What is moh's hardness scale
400
The two things that happen for sedimentary rocks to become what they are
What is weathering and cementation
500
this is constructive, involves magma, and is always underwater
What is seafloor spreading
500
the phase of the mantle
What is plastic solid
500

This is what determines crystal size in rocks.

what is cooling time

500
this tests to see what color comes when you rub a rock against a tile.
What is a streak (test)
500
this is how metamorphic rocks are classified
What is wavy bands
