SOL Review Part 4

What is being formed below?

What is being formed below? Coal

What evidence supports the idea of Continental Drift? Shapes of continents look like they fit together Rock types and mountain ranges match up Fossils match up on continents separated by an ocean Warm climate fossils found in Antarctica, glacier striations found in warm climates

Which process in the water cycle forms clouds? Condensation

What is the difference between an artesian and pumping well? Water flows freely from an artesian well that is dug into a confined aquifer. A pumping well is dug into an unconfined aquifer.

What is the magnitude of a star? Brightness

What moon phase occurs between a waxing crescent and waxing gibbous? 1st quarter

What unit of measurement is most commonly used for measuring distances between objects in the universe? Light year

How is air pressure different at the poles compared to the equator? Air pressure is higher at the poles (air is cold and dry) and lower at the equator (warm and humid)

Match the life form to the geologic era during which it first appeared Paleozoic Cenozoic Pre-Cambrian Mesozoic Bacteria Mammals Reptiles Fish

Match the feature to the correct VA province Karst topography Coal Deposition of sediment Metamorphic rocks Igneous rocks

What is the most abundant gas in Earth’s atmosphere? Nitrogen – 78%

Explain what is happening in the diagram Seafloor spreading at a divergent boundary. New ocean crust is forming at the center of the mid-ocean ridge. Alternating rock layers provide evidence of magnetic pole reversals.

What are line graphs used for showing? Change over time

Match the topographic map to the correct profile

What is the contour interval? 20

What is the elevation of points D and E?
