Quizizz Final Review #6

Refer to Figure 1 and answer the following question: Two processes that change metamorphic rock to igneous rock are

• uplift and erosion

• heat and pressure

• melting and solidification

• burial and cementation

The photograph below shows the metamorphic rock gneiss. Three minerals that would most likely be found in this rock are

• pyroxene, calcite, and fluorite

• garnet, hornblende, and talc

• amphibole, augite, and hematite

• quartz, mica, and feldspar

The cross section below represents rock units within Earth's crust. Sedimentary rock layers are labeled 1 through 6. The age of the igneous rock is

• older than rock layers 1 and 2

• the same age as rock layer 3

• older than rock layer 3

• younger than rock layers 4, 5, and 6

The cross sections below represent three bedrock outcrops found several kilometers apart. Which statement best explains why the volcanic ash layers are useful for correlating the relative ages of the bedrock in the three outcrops?

• The ash was deposited over a large area when a volcano erupted.

• There are no fossils found within the volcanic ash.

• The volcanic eruptions that produced the ash layer occurred over a long period of geologic time.

• The volcanic ash is found between many different layers of bedrock.
