What is a hill?
This biome includes savannah, prairie, and steppe.
What is grasslands?
This volcano is usually circular in shape with steep sides at the opening with slow moving lava.
What is a lava dome?
This type of rock is formed from cooled magma or lava.
What is igneous rock?
The type of structure a mineral has.
What is crystalline (crystal)?
This landform has water on 3 sides.
What is a peninsula?
This biome is located at the North and South Pole where the tree-line stops.
What is tundra?
This volcano is smaller with one single vent.
What is a cinder cone volcano?
This type of rock is formed from small particles of rocks that get squished together in layers.
What is sedimentary?
The hardest mineral.
What is a diamond?
This landform looks like a table.
What is a plateau?
These two types of trees are found in forests.
What are coniferous and deciduous?
This type volcano erupted in Pompeii, it also has side vents.
What is composite (strato)?
The rock in which fossils are found.
What is sedimentary?
This scale is used to measure the softness and hardness of minerals.
What is the Mohs scale?
The 3 types of mountains.
What are volcanic, fold, and block?
These 4 layers of the rainforest are in order from top to bottom.
