Dynamic Earth Unit 3 Test Study Guide What happens to the crust when large amounts of sediment are deposited in a short amount of time? What physical change takes place when igneous rock changes to sedimentary rock? What part of the rock cycle helps form igneous rock but not other types of rock? What part of the rock cycle helps form sedimentary rock but not other types of rock? How does acid rain affect different types of rock? Define uplift Define weathering Define subsidence How did the sedimentary rock in the Grand Canyon form? What happens to basalt or any other rock over time? Define deposition How does metamorphic rock change to sedimentary rock? What change of state happens when magma turns into igneous rock? Which cause more weathering acid rain or normal rain? What causes rocks in a river to erode? What is a rift zone? Where does foliated metamorphic rock form? What condition changes the rock that is deep below the crust of the Earth? What is clastic sedimentary rock and where does it form? What describes the rock that will eventually form at the surface after a volcano erupts? How does basalt form and what class of rock does it belong to? How does granite form and what class of rock does it belong to? Define cementation What do conglomerate, sandstone and, siltstone have in common? What is texture in relation to rocks? Give examples. What effect does the rate at which magma cools have on the texture of igneous rocks? What is a direct source of material in the formation of metamorphic rock? What is one difference between a mineral and a rock? What type of rock is classified as chemical, clastic and organic? What are clasts? Define lava Define magma How can a rock’s texture give clues to its origin? What are some examples of texture? What type of change takes place when granite turns to gneiss? What do basalt and granite have in common? What type of rock is made when layers of material become compressed? What is the rock cycle?
