Mineral Identification SPI Use a table of physical properties to classify minerals. Video

The chart shows the properties of some minerals. A sample of a mineral is red and has a white streak. Based on the chart, which type of mineral is the sample? A Sulfur B Serpentine C Opal D Hematite

Da Rock Cycle SPI Identify the major processes that drive the rock cycle. SPI Label a diagram that depicts the three different rock types. Video

Time 1 shows a rock underground. Time 2 shows the rock exposed at the surface many years later. What is the term for the process that exposed the rock at the surface? A cementation B erosion C transportation D deposition

As a riverbank erodes away, sand and mud are transported downstream and settle at the bottom of a lake. Over time, what type of rock is most likely formed at the bottom of the lake? A igneous B lunar C metamorphic D sedimentary

Earth’s Layers SPI Differentiate among the characteristics of the earth’s three layers. Video

The diagram below shows the layers of Earth. What makes up most of Layer 3? A liquid water B molten rock C hydrogen and helium gas D liquid iron and nickel

The diagram shows a divergent plate boundary. Which of these will most likely happen because the lithospheric plates move away from each other? A New sea floor forms. B Tides become higher. C Winds become stronger. D Water moves to higher latitudes.

Which of these formed the Appalachian Mountains? A sea-floor spreading B continental plates colliding C river sediment deposition D frequent earthquake activity

Plate Tectonics SPI Recognize that lithospheric plates on the scale of continents and oceans continually move at rates of centimeters per year. SPI Describe the relationship between plate movements and earthquakes, mountain building, volcanoes, and sea floor spreading. Video

The map shows the motion of a tectonic plate that includes the country of India. Which is the best approximation of the distance this plate moves every year? A less than one millimeter B a few centimeters C several meters D more than one kilometer

Geologists placed posts on opposite sides of divergent plates to determine the rate of plate movement. How far apart will the posts most likely have moved after 10 years? A 50 centimeters B 5 meters C 50 meters D 5 kilometers

Earth’s Resources SPI Analyze and evaluate the impact of man’s use of earth’s land, water, and atmospheric resources.

As the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere becomes depleted, skin damage can occur from exposure to high levels of ultraviolet (UV) rays. Which human activity has contributed to the breakdown of the ozone layer? A construction of wind turbines to generate electricity B introduction of invasive plant species into local ecosystems C construction of dams for hydroelectric power D release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) into the atmosphere

When water vapor, methane, and carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere, trapped heat is reradiated back to Earth. Which of these will most likely occur when heat is reradiated back to Earth? A Acid precipitation will form. B Soil contamination will increase. C Surface temperatures will increase globally. D The ozone will become thinner and break down.
