Module 4 Study Guide/Review - Honors

Which of the following is NOT true about the role tectonic forces okay in the rock cycle?

• When plates pull apart, rocks melt, and magma forms igneous rocks.

• When plates crash together, rocks are buried, and form metamorphic rocks.

• When plates slide over and under each other, the heat and pressure form igneous rocks.

• When rocks push upward and form mountains, the erosion of the mountains can produce sediment.

Which statement correctly describes the rock cycle?

• Igneous rock can only form by heat and pressure.

• Metamorphic rock can only form by crystallization.

• Sediment can only form by weathering, erosion, and deposition.

• Magma can only form by compaction and cementation.

This rock was formed when magma cooled very slowly inside the Earth. What specific type of rock is it?

• Intrusive Igneous Rock
• Extrusive Igneous Rock
• Foliated Metamorphic Rock
• Clastic Sedimentary Rock

Each rock type can follow only one pathway of the rock cycle.

• True
• False

The process by which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together into one mass

• Depostion

• Compaction

• Cementation

• Erosion

An igneous rock containing large crystals is most likely a(n)

• Chemical Rock
• Foliated Rock
• Extrusive Rock
• Intrusive Rock

The three groups of rocks are classified by

• How they form
• Color
• Grain size
• Chemical Composition

How can a Metamorphic rock become an Igneous rock?

• Weathering and Erosion

• Compaction and Cementation

• Heat and Pressurew

• Melting and cooling
