Rocks are made up of different kinds of minerals. $200 Question from Minerals This property describes how resistant a mineral is to being scratched. $200 Answer from Minerals Hardness! $300 Question from Minerals This property of minerals describes how a mineral will split into smaller pieces. $300 Answer from Minerals Cleavage $400 Question from Minerals Minerals are formed when ________ $400 Answer from Minerals When magma from the Earth’s mantle cools or when a saturated solution Evaporates leaving behind crystals. $500 Question from Minerals If two mineral samples are the same type of mineral, but have different crystal sizes, what could this tell us? $500 Answer from Minerals One sample cooled slower than the other and so, had more time to grow. $100 Question from Rocks There are this many types of rocks. $100 Answer from Rocks 3 $200 Question from Rocks These are the three types of rocks $200 Answer from Rocks Sedimentary Igneous Metamorphic $300 Question from Rocks This is how igneous rocks are formed. $300 Answer from Rocks Igneous rocks form when magma from the Earth’s crust cools and hardens to create rock. $400 Question from Rocks These are the two type of igneous rocks. $400 Answer from Rocks Intrusive Extrusive $500 Question from Rocks This type of rock forms when layers of sediment pile up and are pushed together by pressure and harden to create rock. $500 Answer from Rocks Sedimentary Rock $100 Question from The Rock Cycle What is the rock cycle? $100 Answer from The Rock Cycle The rock cycle is the ability of rocks to change from its type to the other two when conditions are favorable. $200 Question from The Rock Cycle What type(s) of rocks can a sedimentary rock become? $200 Answer from The Rock Cycle Igneous Metamorphic $300 Question from The Rock Cycle If I have an igneous rock and it is weathered and eroded, what kind of rock may this become? $300 Answer from The Rock Cycle Sedimentary $400 Question from The Rock Cycle How do metamorphic and sedimentary rocks become igneous rocks? $400 Answer from The Rock Cycle They melt and become magma. The magma then will cool and harden to form rock. $500 Question from The Rock Cycle If I start with a sedimentary rock, what steps would I have to go through to first make an igneous rock and then a metamorphic rock? $500 Answer from The Rock Cycle Step 1: The sedimentary rock must be melted and form magma. Then this magma must cool and harden to create an igneous rock. Step 2: The new igneous rock must be subjected to high amounts of heat and pressure which will change the minerals in the rock which changes the type of rock. $100 Question from Weathering What is weathering? $100 Answer from Weathering Weathering is the process of breaking down rocks into smaller pieces. $200 Question from Weathering Potholes are an excellent example of this kind of weathering. $200 Answer from Weathering Mechanical Weathering $300 Question from Weathering Biological weathering is due to … $300 Answer from Weathering Living things. Such as plants, trees, etc. $400 Question from Weathering An example of chemical weathering is… $400 Answer from Weathering Acid rain or Water can dissolve some minerals in rocks that will weaken the rock. $500 Question from Weathering Weathering can form this kind of rock. $500 Answer from Weathering Sedimentary $100 Question from Erosion What is erosion? $100 Answer from Erosion The transportation of weathered material. $200 Question from Erosion How can erosion occur by water? $200 Answer from Erosion Water currents and waves are strong and able to push materials around. Particles are carried through the water. $300 Question from Erosion Glaciers are an example of this kind of erosion. $300 Answer from Erosion Erosion by ice. $400 Question from Erosion “Sandblasting” is an example of this kind of erosion. $400 Answer from Erosion Erosion by wind. $500 Question from Erosion Erosion by wind, ice, and water works together with this type of weathering to create cool features such as Hopewell Rocks. $500 Answer from Erosion Mechanical Weathering Final Jeopardy How are minerals, rocks, weathering and erosion all connected? Final Jeopardy Answer Minerals form rocks, rocks are then weathered and eroded away.
