1) Is the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to solid, liquid, or plastic? liquid

2)What type of rock would be formed here (at the pink arrow)? igneous

3) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to (both layers F and G together)? lithosphere

4) What does the prefix litho- mean? rock

5) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to (layers C, D, E, and F)? mantle

6) If the rock at the pink arrow moves to where the green arrow is pointing, what type of rock would it become? metamorphic

What are the five things that define if something is a mineral or not? 7) __inorganic_______________________________ 8) ____occur naturally__________________________ 9) _____solid______________________________ 10) ___orderly structure crystal_______________ 11) ____definite chemical composition or ratio __

12) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to? Inner core

13)An igneous rock was formed and then pushed deep within the Earth where it was compressed into a very hard form. It is solid in color with no banding. What type of rock is it? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic

14) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to? Lower mantle or mesosphere

15) Granite usually forms deep within the Earth and because of this, contains large crystals that make it a favored building material. What kind of rock is granite.? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic

16) Is the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to solid, liquid, or plastic?

17) If the rock at the pink arrow moves to where the green arrow is pointing, what type of rock would it become? metamorphic

18) Is the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to solid, liquid, or plastic?

19) Is the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to solid, liquid, or plastic?

20) What type of hardened rock would be formed here (at the pink arrow)? intrusive igneous

21) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to? crust

22) A layered rock composed of small particles of sand. The particles can be rubbed off with your fingernail. What type of rock is this? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic

23) What is the name for the two layers combined (D and E combined) that the two pink arrows are pointing? asthenosphere

24) Small particles precipitated out from a chemical reaction slowly accumulated in layers and formed a rock. What type of rock is this? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic

25) Is the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to solid, liquid, or plastic?

26) On the Hawaii Islands, volcanoes shoot out lava that cools immediately and contains very small crystal. What type of rock is this? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic

27) What is the name of the layer that the pink arrow is pointing to? Outer core

28) A rock has wavy bands but is very hard; so hard that it can’t be scratched with a fingernail. What type of rock is it? Rock Types to Use Intrusive igneous Extrusive igneous Clastic sedimentary Chemical sedimentary Biologic sedimentary Foliated metamorphic Non-foliated metamorphic
