Weathering, Erosion and Deposition
The process where rocks are broken down into smaller pieces
If I am an Igneous Rock and I go through heat and pressure which rock will I turn into?
I form when a Divergent plate boundaries happens (Two answers)
Mid-Ocean Ridge and Rift Valley
I am the layer where there is oceans and continents?
Crust
I form from Magma/Lava?
Igneous Rock
True or False? Erosion is the process where rocks/sediments are dropped in a new location?
If I am a piece of sediment what are the two things that must happen in order for those sediments to turn into a Sedimentary rock?
Cementation and Compaction
Which plate boundaries collides together and creates mountains?
Convergent Collison
The THICKEST layer of the Earth?
Mantle
I have wavy/bent layers
Metamorphic
True or False? Wind, Water (Ice) and Living Things cause Erosion and Weathering? Which is what the two things have in common.
True
If a mineral has clean and smooth edges what is the property called?
Cleavage
The San Andres Fault Line was created by which plate boundary?
Transform
Which Mineral is the hardest on Moh's Hardness Table?
Diamond
New rock formed after extreme heat and pressure?
Metamorphic Rock
When rocks deposit in a new location this process is called?
Deposition
I am the color of a mineral whenever I scratch it on a surface. Who am I?
Streak
When one plate that is denser than the other goes under the other and forms a volcano? Who am I?
Convergent Subduction
Place the layers of the Earth in ordering DECREASING TEMPERATURE, DENSITY AND PRESSURE!
I am a rock that can be found near bodies of water like a lake or a river?
Sedimentary Rock
If waters enters into a crack of a rock and it freezes then splits the rock, what is the process?
Weathering
If I am a Metamorphic Rock and I undergo melting what will I turn into?
Magma
What process takes place in the asthenosphere, which causes plates to move?
Convection Currents
Diamond with scratch Quartz
I am found near plate boundaries such as transform, convergent or subduction.
Metamorphic
