If someone was going to build in an earthquake zone, where should they build?
On solid rock
400
What is the FOCUS of an earthquake?
The point beneath the earth's surface where rock breaks under stress and triggers an earthquake
400
How are metamorphic rocks formed?
From heat and pressure
400
When a rock is weathered, what happens to it?
It breaks down into smaller pieces
400
What is deposition?
When material is left behind 
400

Why do earthquakes occur more in California than in MA? 
CA is located on a fault line; MA is not
500
Which rocks would most likely be formed at a site deep underground?
Metamorphic rocks
500
What happens when a rock is chemically weathered?
Chemical weathering changes the composition of the rock. 
500
Where do glaciers form?
Where more snow falls than the amount of snow that melts
500
What is an earthquake's epicenter? 
The point on earth's surface directly above the focus
