Geology Review
1. When sediment is pressed together and cemented, the sediment becomes rock.
2. When lava cools and solidifies, rock forms.
3. Metamorphic rock can be altered by temperature and pressure to form a different type of
rock.
4. The processes that form, change, and re-form rock is called the .
5. occurs when water, wind, ice, or heat break down rock into fragments.
6. The outermost compositional layer of the Earth is the .
7. The is denser than the crust and contains more magnesium.
8. The is divided into pieces called tectonic plates.
9. The core is the liquid layer of Earths core.
10. When all the continents were joined into a giant landmass, scientists call the landmass .
11. The lithosphere is divided into pieces called .
12. The theory that describes large-scale movements of Earths lithosphere is called
.
13. The movement of material due to differences in density that are caused by differences in temperature is
called currents.
14. What type of boundary is formed when two plates collide together?
15. What type of boundary is formed when two plates move away from each other?
16. What type of boundary is formed when two plates slide past each other?
17. The epicenter of an earthquake is directly above the .
18. True or False: Hot spots are restricted to tectonic plate boundaries.
