What are the 2 things the universe is composed of? What is the Big Bang Theory? _____ 1. a small rock falling from a cliff _____ 2. limestone dissolved by carbonic acid _____ 3. the oxidation of minerals that contain iron _____ 4. animal burrows dug in rock that let in water and air _____ 5. repeated freezing and thawing of water that cracks rock _____ 6. acids from plant roots that break up rocks _____ 7. formation of potholes in streets during severe winters _____ 8 decaying plants dissolving minerals in rocks _____ 9 tree roots cracking the concrete foundation of a house _____10 the action of water, salt and air on car fenders Wednesday Flashback Review Questions Draw and label the parts Illustrate and name the 3 types of of a transverse wave galaxies. including frequency, amplitude, and wavelength. 1. Complete: Heat and pressure melts ____________________________ rock and turns it into _____________. When it cools it becomes __________________ rock. 2. Igneous rock can be broken down by __________________ and the pieces moved around by erosion. The mix of pieces becomes __________________ rock, such as limestone. 3. The weight and pressure creates heat causing the _________________ rock to turn into __________________ rock, such as marble. 4.In order to form magma, what must happen to igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks? ___________ 5. Compaction & cementation of sediments form _______________ rocks. 6. Deposition and burial of sediments forms ___________________ rocks. 7. Igneous rocks that cool very quickly above the Earth’s surface are ___________. 8. Igneous rocks that cool slowly below the Earth’s surface are ____________. Tuesday Period: ______ What is the difference between a nebula and a galaxy? Describe how waves can interfere with each other? As stars age, the amount of hydrogen change and also the star’s ___________________ and ________________. What is the difference between red shift and blue shift? _________________ 2.The way that light is reflected off an object; can be metallic, dull glassy, or waxy. ___________ 3.The ability of one mineral to scratch another. _________________ 4.The ability of a mineral to break along flat planes. ________________ 5.The way light reflects off the mineral. ______________ Thursday 1The plate tectonics theory states that a. continental crust "plows through" oceanic crust b. oceanic crust "slides over" continental crust c. lithospheric plates move 2What current theory explains why the tectonic plates move? a. Mantle Convection b. Mantle Conduction c. Mantle Subduction 333The theory of___________________ states that new ocean crust is formed at ocean ridges and destroyed at deep-sea trenches. a. seafloor spreading b. tectonic plates c. continental drift 4Earthquakes are a sudden motion caused by movement of tectonic plates working against a. friction b. gravity c. magnetic forces 5When an oceanic plate slides under a continental plate, what is usually formed? a. continental drift b. seafloor spreading c. subduction zone 6At what tectonic plate boundary do plates slide horizontally past each other? a. divergent boundary b. transform boundary c. continental-continental boundary The more distance or faint a galaxy the more rapidly it is moving __________________ from Earth.
