Chapter 9: Earth

Let's Learn​ to

​1. Explain the type and characteristics of rocks

​2. Communicate on how to differentiate the process of rock formation

​how do you classify this rocks?

Multiple Choice

How are rocks classified?

• Based on the way they are formed

• Based on their colors

• Based on their temperature

• Based on their size

Multiple Choice

A scientist who studies rocks is called a

. . .

• geographer

• geographist

• geologer

• geologist

Multiple Choice

How many main kinds of rocks are on earth?

• one

• two

• three

• too many to count

Multiple Choice

The THREE main types of rocks on earth are named . . .

• eggneous, sedamentary, metamorfic

• igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic

• igneus, sedamantary, metemorphic

• igneaus, sadimentary, matemorfic

Multiple Choice

I am the main type of rock that is created from hot lava that cools. What type of rock am I?

• metamorphic

• sedimentary

• igneous

Multiple Choice

I am the main type of rock that is created from layers of sediment. What type of rock am I?

• metamorphic

• sedimentary

• igneous

Multiple Choice

What type of rock is this?

• Sedimentary

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Sand

​ Why should we learn about rock?

​Rocks form soil through the sedimentation process

​

​The rock cycle also gives scientists and engineers an idea on where energy sources (mainly fossil fuels, which are found only in sedimentary rock) and building materials such as marble or granite may be located.

Multiple Choice

Which force plays a major role in the formation of metamorphic rock?

• Acceleration

• Friction

• Pressure

• Centrifugal force

Multiple Choice

3. ________________________ is an example of metamorphic rock.

• a. Granite Rock

• b. Igneous Rock

• c. Sandstone Rock

Multiple Choice

5. Sandstone and Limestone are examples of _________________

• a. Metamorphic Rock

• b. Igneous Rock

• c. Sedimentary Rock

Multiple Choice

Fossils are only found in

• Sedimentary rocks
• Foliated Metamorphic rocks
• Igneous Rocks
• Nonfoliated Metamorphic rocks

Multiple Choice

In which location would you most likely find an igneous rock?

Multiple Choice

Is it possible for a metamorphic rock to form on the surface?

• No there is not enough heat and pressure

• yes - because of lava
