Sedimentary Rock Formation

What two processes help form sedimentary rocks?

• Pressure and Cementation
• Heat and Pressure
• Heat and low temperatures
• Cementation and pressure

Weathering is the process of....

• Breaking down rock into smaller and smaller pieces of sediment.
• The movement of sediment
• Placing sediment into a new location.
• None of the above

What process most likely caused this formation?

• Wind erosion
• Water erosion
• Wind Deposition
• Wind Weathering

What process is this?

• Ice Wedging
• Weathering
• Erosion
• Deposition

All of the following are examples of quick changes to the Earth's surface except....

• Volcanic Eruptions
• Landslides
• Earthquakes
• Weathering.

What is the process of sedimentary rock formation?

• Sediments are laid in a new location and layers build up over time. Pressure and cementation pack the layers together.
• Sediments are laid in a new location and layers build up over time. Pressure and heat pack the layers together.
• Rocks are formed out of lava
• Rocks are formed from other rocks.

What type of energy is this?

• Hydroelectric-renewable
• Hydroelectric non-renewable
• Biofuel-renewable
• Geothermal-renewable

How are fossil fuels formed?

• Dead organisms fall to the bottom of the floor and are covered in sediment. Heat and pressure turn it into fossil fuels.
• Dead organisms are buried.
• Fossil fuels are renewable so they are man made
• Dead organisms fall to the botton of the floor and pressure and cementation change it into fossil fuels

True or false: Fossil Fuels are renewable?

• True
• False

Which is not an alternative energy?

• Fossil Fuels
• Biofuels
• Hydroelectric power
• Wind Energy
