2
Name the three fossil fuels and what they are formed from.
3
Natural Gas Petroleum Oil Coal Organic material (dead plants and animals)
4
How is nuclear power formed?
5
By splitting the nucleus of a uranium atom (fission).
6
How long do fossil fuels take to form?
7
Millions of years
8
Why are fossil fuels and nuclear energy called nonrenewable resources?
9
There is a limited supply. They cannot be replaced in a person’s lifetime.
10
Solar, Wind, Water, Geothermal, Biomass
11
What are renewable resources?
12
The way a metamorphic rock becomes igneous rock.
13
What is metamorphic rock melting (lava, magma) and then cooling?
14
The way igneous rock becomes sedimentary rock.
15
What is weathering and erosion of rock into sediments that are deposited and cemented (lithification)?
16
The way sedimentary rock becomes metamorphic rock.
17
What is sedimentary rock undergoing intense heat and pressure?
18
The way igneous rock becomes metamorphic rock.
19
What is igneous rock undergoing intense heat and pressure?
21
What is the rock cycle?
22
0, A, B, C
23
What are the names of the soil horizons?
24
Climate, Topography, Biological factors, Weathered rock, and Time
25
What are the five soil forming factors that have been identified by scientists?
26
Bits of organic matter found in soil
27
What is humus?
28
The removal of topsoil by the action of running water or wind
29
What is soil erosion?
30
Tree roots cracking the clay surrounding the base of a tree
31
What is weathering?
32
Why is it necessary to reduce our use of nonrenewable resources?
33
They are limited. They are detrimental to the environment.
34
What should we use instead of nonrenewable resources?
35
Use renewable resources, especially those that are in abundance where energy is needed. Example: Pennsylvania = Cow manure
36
How can we conserve our energy use?
37
Possible choices: reduce, reuse, recycle Turn electric devices off when not using them.
38
Identify 5 things that you do to conserve electricity.
39
Possible choices: reduce, reuse, recycle Turn electric devices off when not using them.
40
Carpool Install solar panels Lower the thermostat in the winter
41
What are ways to conserve fossil fuels?
42
The type of rock that is formed in layers
43
What is sedimentary rock?
44
The type of rock that fossils can be found inside.
45
What are Sedimentary Rock and sometimes Metamorphic Rock?
46
The type of rock that is made from another rock but is much harder and looks very different.
47
What is metamorphic rock?
48
The different characteristics of sedimentary and igneous rocks.
49
Possible questions: IgneousSedimentary How formed: Lava/magma coolingweathering, erosion. deposition, cementation Where formed: intrusive, extrusivenear rivers, lakes, streams Made up of:visible crystalslayers of sediment and organic material
50
Smooth, glassy texture, small crystals
51
What is igneous rock?
