Rocks, Rock Cycle, Weathering Test Review
2
1. Mount Rushmore is carved from granite. what type of rock is granite?
A. Igneous B. Metamorphic C. Sedimentary D. None of the above
3
2. Before an igneous rock changes to a sedimentary rock what process must occur?
A. Cementation B. Compaction C. Deposition D. Weathering/Erosion
4
3. Melted rock inside the earth is called
Metamorphic Lava Magma Igneous Rock
5
4. A rock can be man made. True False
6
5. What process changes sediments like pieces of rocks, mineral, and other materials into sedimentary rock? Cooling Compacting and cementing Heat and pressure Melting
7
6. What kind of rock forms when magma cools?
Sedimentary Lava Igneous Metamorphic
8
7. Identify the processes that can change sediment into shale, shale into slate (metamorphic), and slate into magma. Cooling; melting; heat and pressure Compacting and cementing; heat and pressure; melting Melting; heat and pressure; cooling Weathering and erosion; compacting and cementing; cooling
9
8. Ribbon-like layers are common to metamorphic rocks
8. Ribbon-like layers are common to metamorphic rocks. what is this a result of? Lava cooling Compacting and cementing Weathering and compaction Change in heat and pressure
10
9. Rocks only change on earth’s surface.
True False
11
10. Rocks are always changing
True False
12
11. Abrasion, Plant Root Growth, Ice wedging are all examples of
Exfoliation Chemical Weathering Mechanical Weathering Igneous Rock
13
12. What process can change Granite (igneous) into Gneiss (metamorphic)?
Compacting and cementing Cooling Melting Heat and pressure
14
12. The processes that form, change, break down, and re-form rocks are all part of the
Water cycle Carbon cycle Weathering and erosion Rock cycle
15
14. Dissolving and oxidation (rusting) are examples of
Abrasion Mechanical Weathering Metamorphic Rock Chemical Weathering
16
15. A rock that formed inside the earth must reach the earth’s surface before becoming sedimentary rock. True False
17
16. The process that wears down rock is called
Erosion Weathering Metamorphic Rock Cooling
18
17. The process of moving weathered rocks is called
Erosion Weathering Sedimentary rock Melting
19
18. What type of rock forms from lava cooling?
Metamorphic Igneous Sedimentary None of the above
20
19. Where does weathering and erosion take place?
One the Earth’s surface Inside the Earth It does not take place Everywhere
21
20. Where does an increase in heat and pressure occur to form metamorphic rocks?
On the Earth’s Surface Inside the Earth It does not occur Everywhere
