5
What is the difference between a rock and a mineral?
6
Minerals are made of only one element.
Rocks are made of more than one mineral. A 100
7
How are rocks categorized?
8
Rocks are categorized by the way they are formed.
9
What are the three types of rocks?
10
Metamorphic, Igneous, and Sedimentary A 300
11
What physical attributes do we use to identify rocks and minerals?
12
Texture/Shape, Cleavage, Luster
Color, Hardness, Texture/Shape, Cleavage, Luster A 400
13
Name at least 2 tests you can do on a rock to identify it.
14
Scratch Test, Streak Test, Acid Test, Color Identification
15
What is soil made of? B 100
16
Weathered rock, humus (dead plants and animals),
air, and water B 100
17
What natural forces form soil?
B 200
18
(breaks down rocks and dead plants and animals)
Weathering (breaks down rocks and dead plants and animals) Erosion (washes away the sediments) Wind, water, ice, etc. B 200
19
Name 2 types of soils. B 300
20
Body Fossils Trace Fossils Imprints Amber Bones Cast/Mold B 300
21
Explain why a fossil is mainly found in sedimentary rock.
B 400
22
When igneous and metamorphic rocks form the heat and pressure destroy the fossils. The layers of soil that harden around fossils in sedimentary rocks allow the fossils to form. B 400
23
Describe the different types of soil…
Clay Sand Loam Silt B 500
24
Clay – small particles, holds lots of water – sticky, some humus
Loam – medium particles, holds water but drains well, rich with nutrients from humus Sand – large particles, does not hold water well – very little humus Silt – very small particles, smooth, dusty B 500
25
What is the primary source of heat energy?
26
The sun C 100
27
Name the 3 ways heat travels.
C 200
28
Radiation – through waves Convection – through air and liquids
Conduction – through touching C 200
29
Name 3 ways heat is produced.
30
Friction, Mixing Chemicals, Burning Things
31
How do insulators affect heat? Name at least one example.
32
Insulators keep hot things hot and cold things cold
Insulators keep hot things hot and cold things cold. They do not allow heat to travel through them. C 400
33
What is a conductor? Name one example.
34
Conductors allow heat to travel through them easily.
35
Magnets are attracted to what type of material?
36
Iron, steel, or nickel D 100
37
What does it mean for two magnets to repel each other?
38
They are pushing each other away.
D 200
39
What does it mean for a magnets to attract?
40
They are pulling toward each other.
41
Identify whether these two magnets are attracting or repelling
Identify whether these two magnets are attracting or repelling. How do you know? N S N S D 400
42
They are attracting because opposites attract
They are attracting because opposites attract. A north and south are attracting. D 400
43
Describe the magnetic field of a magnet.
44
The magnetic field is the area around the magnet where a piece of iron, steel, or nickel will be attracted to the magnet. D 500
45
