Rocks & Minerals Review

Two types of igneous rocks are:

• Interior and exterior

• Intrusive and extrusive

• Inside and outside

• Enter and exit

Fossils are a form of:

• mineral

• igneous rock

• sedimentary rock

The five characteristics that all minerals share are:

• Definite Chemical Composition, Color, Density, Igneous, and Solid

• Definite Chemical Composition,  Crystal Structure, Inorganic, Naturally Occurring, and Solid

• Cleavage, Faces, Hardness, Metamorphic, and Streak

• Cleavage, Crystal Structure, Density, Igneous, and Solid

This is measured on  the Mohs Scale.

• Cleavage

• Density

• Hardness

• Luster

The _________ of a mineral is a physical property that is easy to observe.

• Chemical Composition

• Color

• Hardness

• Streak

This is how a mineral reflects light.

• Cleavage

• Density

• Hardness

• Luster

The three major rock groups are:

• Inorganic, Metamorphic, and  Sedimentary

• Inorganic, Metamorphosis, and Sediment

• Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sediment

• Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sedimentary

This rock  is formed from molten rock (magma/lava) that has cooled.

• Igneous

• Inorganic

• Metamorphic

• Sedimentary

This rock is formed by erosion (continuously broken down into small fragments) and  then is compressed and  cemented together.

• Inorganic

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Sedimentary

Diamond has a hardness of ___ on Mohs Hardness Scale.

• 1

• 5

• 8

• 10
