100
A natural occurring, usually inorganic solid that has a definite crystalline structure and chemical composition
What is a mineral?
100
the outermost solid layer of earth
What is crust?
100
series of process from one type to other.
What is rock cycle?
100
is any place where gas ash or melted rock come out of the ground.
What is a volcano?
100
Ground movements that occur when blocks of rock in Earth move suddenly and release energy.
What is an earthquake?
200
A solid, geometric form that results from repeating pattern of atoms or molecules.
What is a crystal?
200
is the movement of matter that results from differences and density caused by variations in temperature
What is convection?
200
when magma or lava cools and hardens to become solid.
What is igneous rock?
200
Is magma that reached earths surface.
What is lava?
200
A place within Earth along a Fault at which the first motion of an earthquake occurs.
What is focus?
300
Pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means.
What is elements?
300
Located between the core and the crust.
What is mantle?
300
forms when minerals that form from solutions or sediment from older rocks.
What is sedimentary rock?
300
Lava and clouds of ash can erupt from this, or an opening of a volcano
What is vent?
300
Directly above the focus on Earth's surface.
What is epicenter?
400
Anything that has volume and mass.
What is matter?
400
Extends from below the mantle to the center of Earth.
What is core?
400
forms when pressure, temperature, or chemical processes change existing rock.
What is metamorphic rocks?
400
The resistance of a liquid material, such as lava, to flow?
What is viscosity?
400
A break in Earth's crust along which blocks of rock move.
What is a fault?
500
All substances are made up of atoms, they are the building blocks of matter.
What is an atom?
500
The outermost, rigid layer of Earth.
What is lithosphere?
500
the process by which sediment is moved from one place to another.
What is erosion?
500
Hot ash and bits of rock, may also be ejected into the atmosphere.
What is Pyroclastic materials?
500
Where two or more tectonic plates meet.
What is tectonic plate boundary?
