Weathering, Erosion, Deposition
This rock is made from small pieces of rocks, sand, shell, and pebbles
Sedimentary
Limestone is classified in this category of rock because of its shells, fossils, and pieces of rock.
Sedimentary
The 5 ways we test and identify a mineral's properties.
luster, streak, color, hardness, cleavage
A landslide of soil down the side of a hill is most likely caused by this type of erosion.
Oil is which type of resource?
Non-renewable
The breaking down of rocks into sediment
Weathering
This type of rock forms when lava cools and hardens.
Igneous
A mineral's appearance when it is broken in pieces (rough or smooth).
Cleavage
Explain how ice can cause weathering in a rock.
Wind power is which type of resource?
Renewable
The movement of sediment
Erosion
Heat and Pressure
The way that a mineral's light is reflected off it's surface
Luster
Sand dunes are created by this type of erosion.
Wind Erosion
The name of the resource that cannot be recycled or reused again once it has been used.
Non-renewable Resource
Sediment is dropped in a new location
Deposition
The smallest pieces of rock and stone that come from weathering and erosion.
Sediments
How can you tell if a mineral is harder than another mineral?
Scratch its surface with different objects. The more items it can't be scratched by, the harder it is.
The rock can become smooth over time from the water hitting it over and over.
Name Florida's four main natural resources.
Limestone, Silica, Phosphate, Oil
The three ways weathering, erosion, and deposition can occur.
Through Wind, Water, and Ice
The place where metamorphic rocks can be found.
Deep underground
The color mark left behind when a mineral is rubbed on a white tile.
Streak
Explain how glaciers can cause weathering and erosion.
Glaciers can melt slowly over time and move, pulling sand and rocks along with it.
What is an advantage of using renewable resources over non-renewable resources?
Renewable resources can not be used up.
