2 What is Geology? Questions we be able to answer… 1.What materials are each layer of earth composed of? 2.What forces are needed to form and change rock? 3.What geologic features form due to interactions at plate boundaries 4.What materials must be present in order for soil to form? 5.What geological events occur due to interactions at plate boundaries 6.How can humans be stewards of the lithosphere and its resources?
