Rock Transformations review for CBM6

Could the material for igneous rock come from sedimentary rock?

• Yes, if sedimentary rock is exposed to energy from the sun at Earth's surface for a long time, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock.

• Yes, if sedimentary rock is moved below Earth's outer layer and exposed to energy from Earth's interior, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock.

• No, igneous rock can only form from other igneous rock. Sedimentary rock cannot change into igneous rock.

• No, igneous rock forms under Earth's outer layer due to energy from Earth's interior, but sedimentary rock only forms at Earth's surface.

How does a metamorphic rock form?

• Rocks don't form; they stay as they are.

• It melted and cooled.

• It broke into sediment and then compacted.

• It was heated and put under pressure.

Can material from sedimentary rock ever form igneous rock?

• No, igneous rock can only form out of other igneous rocks. Sedimentary rock cannot change into igneous rock.

• No, igneous rock forms under Earth's outer layer due to energy from Earth's interior, but sedimentary rock is only at Earth's surface.

• Yes, if sedimentary rock is exposed to energy from the sun at Earth's surface for a long enough time, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock.

• Yes, if sedimentary rock is moved below Earth's outer layer and exposed to energy from Earth's interior, it can melt into liquid rock and form an igneous rock.

Define Subduction:

• The process of rock breaking down into smaller pieces due to wind or moving water

• The process by which all the rock formations of a region are pushed up due to plate motion

• The rock type formed when sediment is pressed and glued together

• The process by which rock material moves under Earth's outer layer and into the mantle due to plate motion

What is weathering?

• The process by which all the rock formations of a region are pushed up due to plate motion

• The process by which rock material moves under Earth's outer layer and into the mantle due to plate motion

• The process of rock breaking down into smaller pieces due to wind or moving water

• The movement of sediment from one place to another, often caused by wind or flowing water

What is magma?

• Hot liquid rock below the surface of Earth

• Anything that has mass and takes up space

• One of the many different types of matter that make up rocks

• The place where two plates meet
