Maya, Lily, and Avery went on a field trip to a volcano. They observed a process where molten rock cools and solidifies to form igneous rocks. What is this process called?
solidification
condensation
evaporation
melting
James, Ethan, and Maya are on a field trip to a volcano. Their teacher asks them to identify the two types of igneous rocks they might find. What are the two types they should look for?
intrusive and extrusive
volcanic and plutonic
granite and basalt
sedimentary and metamorphic
Sophia, Abigail, and Anika are studying the formation of the Grand Canyon. What is the main agent of weathering and erosion that contributed to its formation?
gravity
wind
sunlight
water
During a field trip, Luna, Emma, and Noah observed a large rock formation. They noticed that the rocks were broken down into smaller pieces. What is the process responsible for this phenomenon?
solidification
melting
erosion
weathering
Nora, Abigail, and Michael went on a field trip to a canyon. They noticed layers of rocks stacked on top of each other. Michael wondered how these rocks were formed. Can you tell him what is the process by which sediments are compacted and cemented together to form these sedimentary rocks?
weathering
melting
erosion
lithification
Evelyn, Ethan, and Noah went on a field trip to a geological park. They saw different types of sedimentary rocks. Can you help them identify the three main types of sedimentary rocks they observed?
clastic, chemical, and organic
granite, limestone, and sandstone
igneous, metamorphic, and volcanic
hard, soft, and medium
Olivia, Daniel, and Mason are studying geology and come across a rock formation that has been changed by heat, pressure, or chemical reactions. What is the process that caused these rocks to become metamorphic rocks?
metamorphism
erosion
weathering
deposition
Benjamin and Abigail are studying geology and come across a section about metamorphic rocks. They learn that there are two main types of metamorphic rocks. What are these two types?
Foliated and non-foliated
Marble and limestone
Granite and basalt
Igneous and sedimentary
Noah, Oliver, and Scarlett are studying geology and come across a concept that explains the continuous process by which rocks are created, changed, and destroyed. What is this process called?
rock evolution
rock cycle
rock transformation
rock metamorphosis
Arjun, Daniel, and Aiden are studying geology and discussing the rock cycle. They want to know the three main processes involved in the rock cycle. Can you help them?
melting, crystallization, and solidification
compaction, cementation, and lithification
subduction, metamorphism, and uplift
weathering, erosion, and deposition
