| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| A rock with layers and fossils likely formed how? | Compacted sediments |
| What happens to sedimentary rock under heat and pressure? | Metamorphic rock |
| Why are coal deposits found in swamps? | Abundant plant material |
| What do coal and oil formation have in common? | Organic material + heat/pressure |
| Why is copper near volcanic areas? | Hydrothermal (heat and water) mineral concentration |
| How are water and rock cycles connected? | Water drives weathering/erosion |
| Why does oil form in oceans? | More microscopic organisms |
| Oil comes from dinosaurs—true? | No—mostly marine organisms |
| How can one rock become all types? | Moves through processes over time |
| What process turns liquid water into water vapor? | Evaporation |
| What is condensation? | Water vapor cooling into liquid water |
| Which process forms clouds? | Condensation |
| What is precipitation? | Water falling from clouds |
| What is transpiration? | Water released from plants into the air |
| What is runoff? | Water flowing over land into bodies of water |
| What type of rock forms from cooling magma or lava? | Igneous |
| What process breaks rocks into smaller pieces? | Weathering |
| What type of rock forms from heat and pressure? | Metamorphic |
| What forms sedimentary rock? | Compaction and cementation of sediments |
| What happens when rock melts? | It becomes magma |
| Which process turns sediment into rock? | Compaction and cementation |
| Coal forms from what material? | Dead plants |
| Where does coal typically form? | Swamps |
| What turns plant material into coal over time? | Heat and pressure |
| Copper is most often found in what type of rock? (Think about where it forms!) | Igneous rocks |
| How does copper commonly form underground? | From cooling magma and mineral-rich fluids |
| Oil forms from what remains? | Tiny marine organisms |
| Where does oil usually form? | Ocean floors |
| What conditions are needed to form oil? | Heat pressure and time |
| Which cycle includes evaporation and precipitation? | Water cycle |
| Which process is shared by both coal and oil formation? | Heat and pressure over time |
| Which of the following is NOT part of the rock cycle? | Evaporation |
| What is percolation? | Water moving through the ground |
| What is deposition? | Water freezing directly from water vapor into solid ice |
| What is sublimation? | Solid water moving directly into gaseous form |
