Rocks and Minerals Quiz-Video

What are minerals?

• Solid, naturally formed substances with the same composition and properties

• Liquid substances with varying composition and properties

• Gases formed through chemical reactions

• Artificially created substances

How do crystals form?

• Hot water dissolves minerals and leaves behind crystal structures

• Crystals are formed by cooling lava

• Crystals are found naturally in caves

• Crystals are formed by volcanic eruptions

How do rocks make our lives easier?

• Gabbro is used to generate electricity, granite is used to make roads, and coal is used in building materials

• Shale is used to make bricks, granite is used to generate electricity, and gabbro is used in building materials

• Coal is used to make roads, shale is used in building materials, and granite is used to generate electricity

What are the three categories of rocks?

• Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic

• Granite, shale, and gabbro

• Coal, limestone, and sandstone

How do igneous rocks form?

• Liquid magma cools and solidifies to form igneous rocks

• Igneous rocks are formed by the pressure of sedimentary rocks

• Igneous rocks are formed by the heat and pressure of metamorphic rocks

• Igneous rocks are formed by the erosion of sedimentary rocks

How do metamorphic rocks form?

• Rocks change when exposed to heat, pressure, or both

• Metamorphic rocks are formed by the cooling of lava

• Metamorphic rocks are formed by the evaporation of water

• Metamorphic rocks are formed by the erosion of sedimentary rocks
