Volcano
When lava quickly comes out of a volcano is called?
Eruption
A person who a scientist who studies volcanoes?
Volcanologist
What is the a process where a seed/root growing causes rock to break apart?
Root Wedging
What is a test used to discover new information about a question?
Experiment
What are the three types of rocks?
The three types of rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
This is a liquid rock that flows or explodes from a volcano.
Lava
What is the process of breaking rocks into smaller pieces?
Wedging
When tiny bits of rock are moved from one location to another by water, wind, ice, or gravity?
Erosion
What is a high area of land with very steep sides?
Mountain
What rock is formed when existing rocks are transformed by intense heat and pressure, often deep within the Earth? Examples include marble and slate.
Metamorphic
This volcano with fast-flowing, thin lava that does not usually erupt with an explosion.
Shield Volcano
What does it mean to come up with many new questions or ideas about something?
Brainstorm
What is the process where water freezing and expanding causes rock to break apart?
Ice Wedging
What does it mean to guess what will happen based on things you know?
Predict
What type of rock is formed from the cooling and solidification of molten rock (magma or lava)? Examples include granite and pumice.
Igneous
This volcano with slow-flowing, thick lava that usually erupts with an explosion.
Cone Volcano
What does it mean when something is much higher one side is than the other?
Slope
What are these examples of the formation cracking and breakdown of large boulders and mountainsides, the accumulation of talus slopes at the base of cliffs, and the formation of ice-wedge polygons in permafrost regions?
Ice wedging
When something that is very high up on one end and very low at the other end?
Steep
What rock is formed from the accumulation and compaction of sediment, such as sand, silt, and organic materials, over long periods? Examples include sandstone and coal.
Sedimentary
What is a high area of land with an opening where lava flows or explodes out from
Volcano
This job is done by using math and science to design, build, test, and maintain systems, structures, and processes across various industries, solving complex problems and improving existing technology?
Engineer
What are these examples of trees breaking up asphalt and concrete with their roots, roots widening cracks in bedrock to form larger joints, and plants growing in the gaps of sidewalks, causing the pavement to buckle?
This can be triggered by factors like heavy rainfall, earthquakes, or erosion, and can result in damage to infrastructure and loss of life. What is it called?
Landslide
What type of rock makes diamonds?
Diamonds are made in igneous rocks, specifically the volcanic rock types called kimberlite and lamproite, which are formed from magmas that erupt from deep within the Earth's mantle.
