Question 1
/ 100
/1
Where on earth’s surface would we have an area rich in igneous rocks? In Ohio
In Texas
In Florida
In Hawaii
Question 2
/1
Why is the rock cycle called a cycle?
Solid sediments deposit on top of other rocks pushing them deeper and deeper into the earth eventually mixing with magma again.
As hot lava hits the cold solid surface it melts the rock turning it back into a liquid and gas until it condenses back into a solid.
When lava freezes, it goes from liquid to solid.
When rock goes through metamorphosis, it turns into a different type of rock.
Question 3
/1
If clas៝�c sediment comes from glaciers, and the great lakes (Lake Erie for example) were
formed by glaciers, what kind of rock is in and around Lake Erie?
clastic sediments
evaporative sediment
organic sediments
chemical sediments
