1.  Rocks are classified as:   
Sandstone, Slate, Obsidian
Hard, shiny, grey
Sedimentary, Metamorphic, Igneous
Sedimentary, marble, Igneous Basalt
2.
Choose the correct statement about rocks.
All rocks are hard, grey, and form the same way.
Igneous rocks form when lava or magma cools     and hardens.
Fossils can be found in Igneous and metamorphic
    rock. Not usually in sedimentary rock.
You can often see sand, pebbles or stones 
     present in Metamorphic rocks.
3.Choose the correct statement about the compositional and mechanical layers of Earth.
Compositional layers tell what they are composed of and Mechanical tells how the layers act.
Compositional and mechanical layers tell
what they are composed of
Compositional tells the physical properties of
each layer and mechanical tells the state of matter.
4.The process in which water, wind and ice weardown rocks and other surfaces is called:
Erosion
deposition
wearation
weathering
5.The process where sediments are reduced in volume and are pressed and squeezed into layersis called:
compaction
cementation
pressure packing
squishing
6.One process by which Igneous rock can be changedinto Sedimentary rock is:
Weathering, erosion, deposition, then heat      & pressure.
Weathering, eroion, deposition, then      compaction & cementation
heat & pressure, then melting & cooling
melting, then weathering, erosion & deposition
7.Metamorphic rock can change to sediment throughthe process of:
Heat & pressure, then compation & cementation
Melting, cooling, meling & heat
Weathering, heating, melting & compaction
Weathering, erosion & deposition
8. Igneous rock can change to Metamorphic rock through the process of:
Heat & pressure, cooling & melting
Heat & pressure
Melting and cooling
All of the above
9.
What force is causes features on Earth's crustto form?
conduction
 convection
radiation
radiation waves
10.
Box 5 should state:
crystallization
heat and pressure
melting
weathering, erosion,deposition
no
yes
If this picturerepresents the earth'slayers as the crust,mantle, and core;would this be an accurate pictureof the correct thicknesses of each layer?
11.
12.
If you wanted to build a model of the Earth, what 
material should you use for the crust?
Foam packing peanuts
A bag of torn paper
layers of cotton fabric
a thin layer of plaster
