Lava and Magma is both a molten rock that can be found inside the Earth's crust.

d)

Magma is composed of molten rock and is stored in the Earth's crust while lava is a molten rock that reaches the surface of our planet through a volcano vent.

Rocks directly dissolves in water that is caused by higher temperature

c)

Rust decomposes rocks completely with a passage of time

d)

Carbon dioxide and water molecules combine to form a carbonic acid

10.

Which of the following statements explain Salt Weathering/Salt Wedging?   

a)

 Salt Wedging refers to expansion of a rock due to thermal action and crystallization.

b)

Salt Wedging is a removal of overlying rock load due to erosion which causes vertical pressure.

c)

Salt Wedging is a cycle of freezing and thawing action wherein  weather becomes warmer and causes snow/ice to melt.

d)

Salt Wedging is the reaction of carbonate and bicarbonate with minerals to form another type of rock.

11.

Which of the following is a TRUE statement about soil erosion?

a)

It is a geological denudation, which involves the breakdown and transport of rock materials.

b)

It rarely happens because most soil is covered by vegetation.

c)

It is made up entirely of organic materials, such as decaying animals and plants.

d)

It is the wearing away of the surface soil and the subsoil.

12.

Which of the following best describes the difference between Erosion and Deposition?

a)

Deposition is just a result of erosion while erosion is a process of wearing away of topsoil.

b)

Erosion is just a result of deposition while deposition is a process of wearing away of topsoil.

c)

Deposition is when materials, like soil or rocks, are moved by wind or water while Erosion is when those sediments are deposited in a different location

d)

Erosion and deposition is just the same.
