  1. In which type of rock are fossils most likely to be found? Igneous intrusive Igneous extrusive Sedimentary Metamorphic

  2. C. Sedimentary

  3. If visiting a recently erupted volcano, what type of rock samples would you find? Clastic Sedimentary Nonfoliated Metamorphic Chemically formed Sedimentary Extrusive Igneous

  4. D. Extrusive Igneous Rock

  5. Which of the following is a Metamorphic Rock? Granite Sandstone Limestone Marble

  6. D. Marble

  7. What effect does acid rain have on limestone buildings? Dissolve the limestone Changes it to granite Changes the acidity of it Causes buildup of more limestone

  8. Dissolves the limestone

  9. A landslide is an example of erosion caused by Wind. Running water. The movement of a glacier. Gravity.

  10. D. Gravity

  11. In Earth’s crust, what type of rock is found under the Ocean? Only granite Only basalt Granite on top; basalt underneath Basalt on top; granite underneath

  12. B. Only Basalt

  13. The thickest layer of the Earth is the Crust. Mantle. Outer Core. Inner Core.

  14. B. Mantle

  15. How does the density of material in Earth’s layers change with depth? increases with depth decreases with depth Does not change with depth Increases, then decreases

  16. A. Density increases with depth

  17. Identify the layers of the Earth from surface to interior? A.Outer Core, Inner Core, Mantle, Crust B.Crust, Inner Core, Outer Core, Mantle C.Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, Inner Core D.Crust, Mantle, Inner Core, Outer Core

  18. C. Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, Inner Core

  19. Water covers what percent of Earth’s surface? 30% 50% 70% 90%

  20. C. 70%

  21. What happens to a plant soon after it dies? Becomes hard & forms rock. Breaks down & becomes part of the soil Turns black & becomes coal. Becomes soft and forms clay.

  22. B. Breaks down/ becomes part of the soil

  23. The jet stream has a great impact on changing weather conditions in an area because: Does not change seasons. Keeps atmosphere full of moisture. Is a determinant of major air movements. Speeds up evaporation following precipitation.

  24. C. Is a determinant of major air movements The Jet Stream brings moisture from Gulf, Cold comes from the North & warm air is brought in by the Atlantic. These cause YOUR weather patterns!!!!!!

  25. What is MAINLY responsible for the unequal heat of Earth’s surface? Distance of Sun from different parts of Earth The angle sunshine strikes Earth Material of Earth’s surface Changes in amount of energy the sun puts out

  26. B. Angle of Sunshine striking the Earth

  27. What causes places in the Mid Ocean Ridge to spread apart? 2 tectonic plates crashing into each other One tectonic plate being pushed under another Two tectonic plates moving alongside each other Two tectonic plates moving away from each other

  28. D. Two Tectonic Plates moving away from one another Convergent Boundary: Collide=Mountains Divergent Boundary: Diverge= Rifts Transform Boundary: Move past each other= Earthquakes

  29. Which natural force creates surface ocean currents? Gravity Sunlight Earthquakes wind

  30. D. Wind

  31. How are the Earth, Sun, & Moon aligned during a Solar Eclipse? • A. Sun, Moon, Earth • B. Sun, Earth, Moon • C. Earth, Sun, Moon • D. Moon has nothing to do with Solar Eclipse

  32. A.Sun, Moon, Earth

  33. What forces causes tides? Wind Gravity Sunlight Evaporation

  34. B. Gravity (Earth, Moon & Sun)

  35. Which layer of Earth’s atmosphere is where our weather occurs? Troposphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Exosphere

  36. A. Troposphere

  37. Which type of eclipse occurs whenever the Moon passes through Earth’s shadow? Total Solar Lunar Partial

  38. C. Lunar

  39. What phase must the moon be in to allow for a Lunar Eclipse? • A. New • B. Full • C. First Quarter • D. Waxing Gibbous

  40. B. Full Moon ONLY!!

  41. Earth rotates from A. North to South B. South to North. C. East to West D. West to East

  42. D. West to East The Sun goes down on the East Coast first…

  43. What is the purpose of using terraces on hillsides? A. To retain water and soil B. To increase Wind Erosion C. To keep roots from spreading D. Provides protection for animals

  44. A. To retain water and soil • This keeps roots in place • Cuts down on erosion

  45. What is the name of the Volcanic and Earthquake region found in the Pacific Ocean? • Pangaea • Ring of Fire • Mid-Ocean Ridge • Gulf Stream

  46. B. Ring of Fire

  47. Clouds form when water vapor in the air • Condenses around dust particles • Rises and disappears • Rises too high to fall back • Encounters a warm front

  48. Condense around dust particles (vapor to liquid) Evaporation: liquid to vapor (boil/melt)

  49. The Sun’s energy reaches Earth through • Evaporation • Condensation • Radiation • Wind

  50. C. Radiation – Heat transfer through open airConduction: thru touchConvection: thru fluids ONLY
