1. What type of rock is formed due to the compacting and cementing of layers of debris?

Eroded rock

Igneous rock

Metamorphic rock

Sedimentary rock

2.The diagram below represents the rock cycle.



The diagram shows 3 rectangular boxes labeled Igneous rock, metamorphic rock, and sedimentary rock and 2 ovals labeled Magma and Sediment. There are 9 arrows. One arrow points from igneous rock to magma, one arrow points from igneous rock to metamorphic rock, one arrow points from igneous rock to sediment and is labeled A, one arrow points from magma to igneous rock, one arrow points from metamorphic rock to magma, one arrow points from metamorphic rock to sediment and is labeled A, one arrow points from sedimentary rock to metamorphic rock, one arrow points from sedimentary rock to sediment and is labeled A, and one rock points from sediment to sedimentary rock.



Which process is represented by the label A?



Cementation

Compaction

Heat and pressure

Weathering and erosion

3.Lisa wrote the following steps in the formation of metamorphic rocks.



Step 1: Rocks pushed up onto Earth's surface due to movement of tectonic plates

Step 2: Rocks experience extreme heat and pressure

Step 3: Mineral composition of rocks changes

Step 4: Original rocks transform into new rocks



Which step is incorrect?



Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Step 4

4.Which statement best explains the role of weathering and erosion in the rock cycle?



Rocks melt by this process.

Molten rocks solidify by this process.

They change the mineral composition of rocks.

They break rocks and transport them to new locations.

5.Which layer of Earth has partially melted material that moves the tectonic plates?



Crust

Inner core

Mantle

Outer core

6.Which of these best describes the material inside Earth's mantle?



Remains stationary

Moves in a circular motion

Rises up but does not sink down

Sinks down but does not rise up

7.he movement of tectonic plates in two locations is described below:



Location A: Tectonic plates push together

Location B: Tectonic plates pull apart



Which statement is most likely true?



Ocean basins may form in both locations.

Volcanic eruptions may occur in both locations.

Ocean basins may form in location A but not in location B.

Volcanic eruptions may occur in location B but not in location A.

8.The table below describes geological events.





Event Boundary where they occur

Convergent Divergent Transform

A Yes Yes No

B Yes Yes Yes



Which statement is most likely correct?

Event A represents earthquakes and Event B represents volcanic eruptions.

Event A represents volcanic eruption and Event B represents earthquakes.

Event A represents formation of ocean basins and Event B represents earthquakes.

Event A represents earthquakes and Event B represents formation of ocean basins.
