The material that makes up Earth’s hard outer surface is____________________________. 9. The science of _____________________________is the study of planet Earth. 10. The ___________________________includes the uppermost part of the mantle and the crust. 11 Scientists who study Earth and the processes that shape it are known as _____________________________. Directions: Use the chart to answer the questions below 1. Name one mineral that you can scratch with your fingernail. 2. Which mineral can scratch anything? 3. Which object can scratch feldspar but not quartz? 4. Which object can scratch apatite but not feldspar? Minerals Understanding Main Ideas Answer the following questions. 1. List five characteristics that minerals share. a. _________________________________________________________________________ b. _________________________________________________________________________ c. _________________________________________________________________________ d. _________________________________________________________________________ e. _________________________________________________________________________ 2. Describe two ways in which minerals can form. ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ Building Vocabulary If the statement is true, write true. If it is false, change the underlined word or words to make the statement true. _________________ 3. Formed in the mantle, molten material called lava cools to form minerals below Earth’s surface. _________________ 4. Narrow bands of mineral called veins form underground from solutions. _________________ 5. The repeating pattern of atoms in a mineral form a solid known as a fracture. _________________ 6. The color of a mineral’s powder is known as luster. _________________ 7. The density of a mineral is how much mass is contained in a given volume of that mineral. _________________ 8. Its beauty and hardness are two reasons why a gemstone is a valued mineral. _________________ 9. Minerals that form irregular surfaces when they break apart have a property called cleavage.

Name a SPECIFIC example on our planet: GT – Label them ALL Rock Cycle in Earth’s Crust Use this rock cycle diagram to answer the questions below. Follow the arrows carefully! 1. As magma cools, it forms _____________________ rock by the process of ________________________. 2. Igneous rocks can form metamorphic rocks, sediments and _________________. 3. Sediments are made from the process of ______________________ and ______________________. 4. Sediments form sedimentary rocks by the process of _____________________, ______________________, ____________________, and________________________. 5. Sedimentary rocks can form _______________rocks, sediments, and _______________. 6. Which processes changes igneous rock into metamorphic rock? ______________ and ________________ 7. Which process changes sedimentary rock into magma? ________________________ 8. Which processes changes metamorphic rock into sediments? ________________ and _________________ 9. Metamorphism involves adding _________________ and/or _________________ to pre-existing rocks. 10. Compaction & cementation of sediments forms ________________________ rocks. 11. Solidification of magma forms ______________________ rocks. 12. Deposition and burial of sediments forms _________________________ rocks. 13.
