What do geologist look for when examining rock samples? , Physical Characteristics, Texture of the rock, and signs of how the rock might of been formed., The number of cracks visible on the surface only, Whether the rock can float in water, The location where the rock was found only, and The weight of the rock and how heavy it feels, The weight and size of the rock only, The temperature and smell of the rock, A simulation is useful for observing what process?, Only occurs above ground in small areas, Takes a few minutes and affects one location, Happens quickly and can be seen easily, 1. Takes millions of years, 2. Happens slowly and underground, and 3. Affects large areas of land, Ways to form rocks in simulation?, Add sediment and cooling magma, Adding water and letting it evaporate and Breaking rocks into smaller pieces only, Heating rocks without letting them cool, Adding water without sediment or magma, What is simulation?, Scientific model that helps us study changes, A real-life experiment done outside in nature, A type of rock formed over time, A machine that breaks rocks apart, What is magma?, Hot liquid rock below earth's surface, Comes from underground and cools at earth's surface., Formed by melting rock, Melted metal from the Earth’s core, Soil mixed with water beneath the ground, Answers A, B, and C, What is Sedimentary rock?, Rock formed when sediment is pressed (compacted) and glued (cemented) together, Rock formed when melted rock cools and hardens, Rock formed from heat and pressure deep underground, Rock made from lava flowing on Earth’s surface and cooling, What is Sediment?, Large solid rock formations, Melted rock beneath Earth’s surface, Small pieces of rock, Gas trapped underground, What is energy?, The weight of something, The size of an object, The color of matter, ability to make things move or change, Rocks can change by means of what?, Weathering, Melting, and erosion., Freezing, breaking, and stacking, Heating, coloring, and shaping, Cutting, polishing, and painting, What is a cross section view?, Shows only the top of something, Shows a far-away landscape view, Shows the side (or inside) of something, Shows only the outside surface, What forms igneous rocks?, When magma cools and hardens, Sediment being pressed together, Wind and water moving sediment, Rocks breaking into smaller pieces, What is an igneous rock?, Rock formed from heat and pressure only, Rock formed from layers of sediment, Rock made from sand and shells, Rock type formed when magma cools and becomes solid, What is map view?, Shows the inside layers of Earth, Shows a side view of land, Shows the overview of a landscape, Shows underground rock movement, What is subduction?, Process that rock material moves under earth's outer layer into the mantle., Rock breaking into smaller pieces, Sediment being carried by water, Rock cooling on Earth’s surface, Everything made of rock, magma, sediment and all rock types are called what?, Natural resources, Earth layers, Mineral mixtures, Rock material, Melting of rock energy comes from what?, The sun only, Earth, Water movement, Wind and air pressure, How can energy play a role in different rock types forming?, Energy from different sources lead to different types of rock. Energy inside earth melts rock into liquid rock, but energy from the sun causes rock to weather into small pieces of rock., Energy only cools rocks but never melts them, Energy only moves rocks but doesn’t change them, Energy has no effect on rock formation, How does sediment form?, Through the weathering of rocks., Energy only cools rocks but never melts them, Energy only moves rocks but doesn’t change them, Energy has no effect on rock formation, Where does weathering energy come from?, The moon, The sun, Ocean tides only, Earth’s core, What is weathering?, The movement of rocks from place to place, The process of rock breaking down into smaller pieces due to wind or moving water., The melting of rocks underground, The pressing of sediment into rock, What is a sample?, A broken rock with no purpose, A full-size object, A tool used to measure rocks, A small part that shows what the whole is like., How can sedimentary rock change into igneous rock?, By breaking into smaller pieces only, By being exposed to wind and water, Sedimentary rock is moved below earth's outer layer and exposed to energy form earth's interior, it can melt into liquid rock and for igneous rock., By staying on Earth’s surface and cooling, What is matter?, Anything that has mass and takes up space, Anything that moves, Anything that is alive, Anything that has energy only, What is melting?, Change from liquid to solid, Breaking into smaller pieces, Change in state from a solid to a liquid, Cooling into a solid, What is cementation?, Rocks melting into magma, Rocks being moved by water, Sediment breaking apart, Process of sediment being blued together, What is erosion?, Movement of sediment from one place to another, often by wind or flowing water, Breaking rocks into smaller pieces, Melting rock underground, Pressing sediment together, What is compaction?, Rocks melting into liquid, process of sediment being buried and pressed together., Rocks breaking apart into pieces, Sediment spreading out loosely.
