3
$100 Question from Minerals Minerals are the building blocks of this substance.
4
$100 Answer from Minerals Rocks! Rocks are made up of different kinds of minerals.
5
$200 Question from Minerals This property describes how resistant a mineral is to being scratched.
6
$200 Answer from Minerals Hardness!
7
$300 Question from Minerals This property of minerals describes how a mineral will split into smaller pieces.
8
$300 Answer from Minerals Cleavage
9
$400 Question from Minerals Minerals are formed when ________
10
$400 Answer from Minerals When magma from the Earth’s mantle cools or when a saturated solution Evaporates leaving behind crystals.
11
$500 Question from Minerals If two mineral samples are the same type of mineral, but have different crystal sizes, what could this tell us?
12
$500 Answer from Minerals One sample cooled slower than the other and so, had more time to grow.
13
$100 Question from Rocks There are this many types of rocks.
14
$100 Answer from Rocks 3
15
$200 Question from Rocks These are the three types of rocks
16
$200 Answer from Rocks Sedimentary Igneous Metamorphic
17
$300 Question from Rocks This is how igneous rocks are formed.
18
$300 Answer from Rocks Igneous rocks form when magma from the Earth’s crust cools and hardens to create rock.
19
$400 Question from Rocks These are the two type of igneous rocks.
20
$400 Answer from Rocks Intrusive Extrusive
21
$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.
22
$500 Answer from Rocks Sedimentary Rock
23
$100 Question from The Rock Cycle What is the rock cycle?
24
$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.
25
$200 Question from The Rock Cycle What type(s) of rocks can a sedimentary rock become?
26
$200 Answer from The Rock Cycle Igneous Metamorphic
27
$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?
28
$300 Answer from The Rock Cycle Sedimentary
29
$400 Question from The Rock Cycle How do metamorphic and sedimentary rocks become igneous rocks?
30
$400 Answer from The Rock Cycle They melt and become magma. The magma then will cool and harden to form rock.
31
$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?
32
$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.
33
$100 Question from Weathering What is weathering?
34
$100 Answer from Weathering Weathering is the process of breaking down rocks into smaller pieces.
35
$200 Question from Weathering Potholes are an excellent example of this kind of weathering.
36
$200 Answer from Weathering Mechanical Weathering
37
$300 Question from Weathering Biological weathering is due to …
38
$300 Answer from Weathering Living things. Such as plants, trees, etc.
39
$400 Question from Weathering An example of chemical weathering is…
40
$400 Answer from Weathering Acid rain or Water can dissolve some minerals in rocks that will weaken the rock.
41
$500 Question from Weathering Weathering can form this kind of rock.
42
$500 Answer from Weathering Sedimentary
43
$100 Question from Erosion What is erosion?
44
$100 Answer from Erosion The transportation of weathered material.
45
$200 Question from Erosion How can erosion occur by water?
46
$200 Answer from Erosion Water currents and waves are strong and able to push materials around. Particles are carried through the water.
47
$300 Question from Erosion Glaciers are an example of this kind of erosion.
48
$300 Answer from Erosion Erosion by ice.
49
$400 Question from Erosion “Sandblasting” is an example of this kind of erosion.
50
$400 Answer from Erosion Erosion by wind.
51
$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.
52
$500 Answer from Erosion Mechanical Weathering
53
Final Jeopardy How are minerals, rocks, weathering and erosion all connected?
54
Final Jeopardy Answer Minerals form rocks, rocks are then weathered and eroded away.
