  4. What are the 3 ways geologists observe rocks? A 100

  5. Mineral composition, color, and texture A 100

  6. What are the 3 types of Rocks? A 200

  7. Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic Rocks A 200

  8. In the rock cycle, the process by which an igneous rock changes to a sedimentary rock must begin with? A 300

  9. Erosion A 300

  10. Describe texture of a rock A 400

  11. Grain size- size of the grains in a rock Grain Shape- shape of the grains in a rock Grain Pattern- pattern of the grains in a rock A 400

  12. What minerals is the rock Granite made of? A 500

  13. Feldspar, Mica, Hornblende, Quartz A 500

  14. What is a grain? B 100

  15. Most rocks are made up of particles of minerals or other rocks. B 100

  16. What is texture? How is texture described? B 200

  17. Texture is the look and feel of the rock’s surface. It’s described as grain size, pattern and shape B 200

  18. What is an intrusive and extrusive igneous rock? B 300

  19. Intrusive- Igneous rock that formed when magma hardened beneath Earth’s surface Extrusive- Igneous rock that formed from lava that erupted onto Earth’s surface B 300

  20. Foliated Rock? B 400

  21. Metamorphic rocks that have their grains arranged in parallel layers or bands B 400

  22. Name all 3 types of rocks and explain each B 500

  23. Igneous rock- Forms from cooling of magma or lava Sedimentary rock- Forms when particles of other rocks or the remains of plants and animals are pressed and cemented together Metamorphic rock- Forms when an existing rock is changed by heat and pressure B 500

  24. What is the Rock Cycle? C 100

  25. Series of processes on Earth’s surface and in the crust and mantle that slowly change rocks from one kind to another. C 100

  26. True/False: Deep inside the Earth and at the surface produce a slow cycle that builds, destroys, and changes the rocks in the crust. C 200

  27. True C 200

  28. True/False: Rocks last forever C 300

  29. False, they are constantly being formed and destroyed through long periods of time. C 300

  30. DAILY DOUBLE DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager C 400

  31. What processes occur in the rock cycle? C 400

  32. Melting, Cooling, Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation C 400

  33. Begin with igneous rock and explain how it could change through two more steps in the rock cycle. C 500

  34. The igneous rock is buried, exposed to heat and pressure, and becomes a metamorphic rock, which eventually is uplifted and eroded to form sediment and then sedimentary rock C 500

  35. What are the two types of igneous rocks? D 100

  36. Extrusive and Intrusive D 100

  37. An igneous rock containing large crystals is most likely a? D 200

  38. Intrusive Rock D 200

  39. True/False: Igneous rocks are classified by their mineral composition, texture, and sediments. D 300

  40. False. Origin, Mineral composition, and texture. D 300

  41. Give one example of how Igneous rocks have been used throughout history. D 400

  42. Building materials and tools Fortresses were built out of granite, as well as, kitchen counters. D 400

  43. What is the relationship between an igneous rock’s texture and where it was formed? D 500

  44. An igneous rock with a glassy or fine-grained texture cooled rapidly near or at Earth’s surface An igneous rock with a coarse-grained texture cooled slowly deep underground D 500

  45. What are the 4 processes when becoming a sedimentary rock? E 100

  46. Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation. E 100

  47. Many sedimentary rocks have visible layers because of the process of ? You’ll find the oldest sedimentary rocks in which layer? E 200

  48. Deposition and in the lowest layer E 200

  49. What are the three types of sedimentary rocks? E 300

  50. Organic, Clastic and Chemical Rock E 300
