Does the engineering process ever end?
No, because there are more ways to improve.
100
Which crust is 4x thicker than the other? Oceanic or continental?
Continental crust is 4x thicker and is more dense.
100
What are the laws of Relative dating?
Law of superposition, Crosscutting & inclusions
100
How are igneous rocks formed?
Molten rock cools and crystallizes
100
What is climate based on?
Average temperatures 

Average Precipitation 

Seasonal changes

200
What’s the point of the engineering process?
To solve the problem/ need.
200

Fill in the blank


Without the _____, we wouldn’t have a magnetic field.
Outercore
200
Any feature that cuts across a sequence of rock ; younger than everything it cuts though


What is this?

Crosscutting
200
Are intrusive rocks above ground or underground?
Underground
200
Name characteristics of low pressure
-warm -rise -wet -clouds -rain -counter clockwise 
300
How many steps are in the process?
There are 8 steps in the process.
300
Name the layers (in any order)
Bottom to top-

Innercore, Outercore,mantle,asthenosphere, lithosphere & crust

300
What are inclusions?
Any rock or fragment that’s included inside of another rock; older than the rock in which is included.
300
How are sedimentary rocks formed?
Weathering, Erosion, deposition and compaction.
300
What takes longer to cool, land or water? What would have bigger temperature ranges?
Water takes longer to cool and heat but land would have bigger temperature ranges because there’s no water to mediate the temperature.
400
Why is step one (identity the need/problem) so important?
The point of the process is to solve the problem/need, without knowing what the need/problem is. It defeats the purpose of engineering process.
400
Name the evidences of continental drift.
Evidence 1. Fit of continents 

Evidence 2. Fossil evidence

Evidence 3. Rocks

Evidence 4. Climate

400
Angular conformity 
A gap where bottom layers have been tilted & new horizontal layers have been placed on top.
400
Will intrusive or extrusive rocks have larger crystals?
Intrusive will have larger crystals because they have more time to form.
400
Temperature and salinity effect what?
Density
500
How can the engineering process relate back to life?
(Answers May very)

The engineering process has you learn and improve.The process also helps you learn from your mistakes,Which we apply to life everyday.

What causes Folding, Faulting and Tilting?
Folding is caused by Compression 

Faulting is caused by pressure

And Tilting is caused by Movement
