1) The three types of rocks are...
A
Igneous rocks, Intrusive and Extrusive
B
Metamorphic, Sediment, Mineral
C
Sedimentary, Igneous and Transformers
D
Sedimentary, Metamorphic and Igneous
2) This type of rock forms when hot liquid rock, magma, cools and solidifies. The type of rock that forms depends on the magma composition and the amount of time to cool.
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Igneous Rock
C
School House Rock
D
Metamorphic Rock
3) This type of rock forms when temperature and pressure inside the Earth's crust changes.
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Megatron Rock
C
Metamorphic Rock
D
Igneous Rock
4) This type of rock forms through erosion of sediments that are moved from one place to another and deposited into layers. The older layers become compacted and cemented together to form...
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Transition Rock
C
Igneous Rock
D
Metamorphic Rock
5) This is a noticeable feature of sedimentary rock:
A
Foliated layers
B
Vesicular = air bubbles in the rock
C
Strata = layers of rock
D
Nonfoliated layers
6) Intrusive igneous rock forms by:
A
Magma that erupts onto Earth's surface (lava) and cools quickly, small to little crystal formation, fine grains, smooth feel.
B
Magma pushes into surrounding rock BELOW Earth's surface... cools slower, forming large crystals. Coarse grained-bumpy.
7) Extrusive igneous rocks are formed by:
A
Magma that erupts onto Earth's surface (lava) and cools quickly, small to little crystal formation, fine grains, smooth feel.
B
Magma pushes into surrounding rock BELOW Earth's surface... cools slower, forming large crystals. Coarse grained-bumpy.
8) Your lab partner is looking at a rock, she states that is feels sandy and you think you can see what looks like a leaf in the rock. What type of rock is this?
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Igneous Rock
C
Metamorphic Rock
9) You are looking at a rock in science class and it is made of large crystals. It feels coarse. These characteristic indicate what type of rock?
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Igneous Rock
C
Metamorphic Rock
10) Large crystals in a rock are an indicator of what type of rock?
A
Intrusive Igneous Rock
B
Extrusive Igneous Rock
C
Sedimentary Rock
D
Metamorphic Rock
11) Your lab partner is looking at a different rock, it looks like it has layers and it feels smooth. Your lab partner says it looks like it is fine grained too. Describe what type of rock your lab partner is holding.
A
Extrusive Igneous Rock
B
Sedimentary Rock
C
Metamorphic Rock
D
Intrusive Igneous Rock
12) What is the difference between a rock and a mineral?
A
Minerals are made out of elements. Rocks are made of different minerals.
B
Minerals are made of rocks. Rocks are made up of elements.
C
Rocks are made of candy. Minerals are made from cookies.
D
Rocks are rocks and minerals are minerals.
13) In which type of rock do we find fossils?
A
Sedimentary Rock
B
Intrusive Igneous Rock
C
Metamorphic Rock
D
Extrusive Igneous Rock
14) Metamorphic rocks are described as having:
A
Foliated- arranged in planes/bands or Nonfoliated- not arranged in planes/bands.
B
Magma and lava
C
Strata- layers
D
Large or small crystals
15) 3 ways that sedimentary rocks can form:
A
Nonfoliated, foliated, strata
B
Clastic, chemical and organic.
C
Metamorphic, Igneous and Sedimentary
D
Strata, intrusive, extrusive
