Rock Cycle
100
A trace of a plant or an animal that is embedded or preserved into a rock.
What is a fossil?
100
Rock refers to rock that has become so hot that it melted.
What is Molten rock?
100

What layers is the lithosphere made up of?

the crust and upper mantle

100
Erosion, Earthquake, weathering erosion, and tectonic plates moving.
What is destructive Earths processes?
100
A series of processes that cause rocks to change from on type to another.
What is the Rock Cycle?
200
Sedimentary.
What is the type of rock that is most likely to contain fossils?
200
When Molten rock cools and hardens.
What is Igneous rock?
200

What characteristic best describes the asthenosphere?

plasticity, like silly putty, hot

200
Mountain building, and deposition; new crust to form.
What is are constructive Earth processes?
200
Since earth formed 4.5 billion years.
What is the age of the Rock Cycle?
300

What do scientists' study to learn about the inside of the Earth?

Earthquakes or seismic waves

300
A rock changed due to heat and or pressure.
What is Metamorphic rock?
300

What is the inner core composed of?

nickel and iron

300
Break down old landforms.
What is something destructive processes do?
300
Particles that settle when rivers slow down.
What is Sediments?
400

Where do you find the densest materials inside the Earth?

The center, the middle or the core.

400
Sedimentary, Metamorphic, and Igneous.
What is the three types of rocks?
400

The outer core is responsible for creating what?

Earth's magnetic fields

400
Build up new landforms.
What is something constructive processes do?
400
Settle in horizontal layers, with new layers forming on top of older layers.
What is the way sediments settle?
500
Provides evidence for the age of rock layers.
What is something important about a fossil besides the remains or traces of organisms?
500
Particles settle in layers that build up over time, new layers form on top of old layers, com[acting the particles together. A cementing agent helps hold particles together.
What is a Sedimentary rock and how do they form?
500

The outer core is the thickest layer. True or False?

False

500
They make our earth.
What is some important things about destructive and constructive processes?
500
5 processes.
What is the number of processes in the Rock Cycle?
