Earth's Resources
Natural Resources
A fossil used for dating.
Index Fossil
Can be Made from sediments, pressure and heat, or cooled lava.
Rock
When lava cuts through rock layers.
Igneous Intrusion.
The Core of Earth that is the hottest.
Inner Core.
Fuels that are non-renewable and take hundreds of millions of years to replace.
Fossil Fuels
The Process of sediments compacting together to form a rock.
Compaction
Sedimentary Rock
The process of dating layers accordingly, using the Law of ______________
Superposition
Igneous Rock made OUTSIDE THE VOLCANO
Solid compound. In natural form. Pure
Mineral
When the Tectonic plates split apart and the ground shakes.
Earthquake
Is made from pressure and heat from underground.
Metamorphic Rock
Specifically Dating a rock layer.
Absolute Dating
Igneous Rocks MADE INSIDE OF A VOLCANO
Intrusive
The act of resources spreading out. For example, 15 tons of oil lands in turkey, 10000 tons in USA, and 1 ton in Russia.
Distribution
A large mound of rock built up from when the tectonic plates moved towards each other and formed a hill. This hill also spits out hot lava.
Volcano
Rock that is made from cooled lava.
Igneous Rock
A line/crack in rock layers
Fault
Determining the past order of the organisms of not necessarily knowing the age
Relative Dating
These processes contribute to the making of Earth's resources.
Geo-science Processes
Plates that are responsible for earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and continental drift.
Tectonic Plates
Hot Molten Rock under a volcano.
Magma
The Law that explains that a fault is younger than the layers it cuts.
Law of Cross Cutting
The Process of the Continents drifting away due to tectonic plates.
Continental Drift
