WED
How are arches created?
Weathering and Erosion
This step in the sedimentary rock process moves the sediments to somewhere else
Erosion
Why did my glass of water have less water in it after I left it out overnight?
It evaporated
Name three fossil fuels.
Oil, natural gas, petroleum, coal
Which sedimentary rocks steps happen above ground? Which ones happen below the ground?
WED above
C&C below
How are sand dunes formed?
This step breaks things into smaller pieces
Weathering
What provides the energy for the water cycle?
The sun
The fossil fuel created by animals from millions of years ago
Oil
What kind of ecosystem did Texas have millions of years ago? How do we know?
Water because we have oil which is made from dead ocean animals
What creates a U shaped valley? V shaped valley?
glacier and river
This step squishes all the sediments together
Compaction
Clouds form when water vapor cools and turns into tiny droplets in this process.
Condensation
The fossil fuel created by plants from millions of years ago
Coal
If I have layers of fossils, how can I tell which one is the oldest?
The one that is farthest down
How is a delta made?
Water erodes sediments. They are deposited at a larger body of water. Those sediments build up and the water then moves around those built up sediments.
This step glues all the sediments together
Cementation
After precipitation, water collects in rivers, lakes, and oceans in this step.
Accumulation
What are the most important things to create fossil fuels?
HEAT AND PRESSURE
Does Miss Dunn or Miss Burney have a college degree in animal science?
Miss Burney
relate WED to how sedimentary rocks are made
You have to weather to create sediments, they have to be moved somewhere else, and then eventually dropped
Why are they called sedimentary rocks?
Because they are made of sediments
Why are there water droplets on the outside of my cup?
Condensation
How do we get to fossil fuels? What are they buried under?
Drill. Layers of sediments.
Does Miss Dunn or Miss Burney have a blue car?
