Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Name the layer of soil that is being described below: This layer is very rich in minerals and clay. There is very little humus in this layer.
Subsoil
Name the layer of soil that is being described below: This layer is made up of mostly decomposed or decomposing organic material.
Humus
Name the layer of soil that is being described below: Made up of solid rock. Known as the foundation of soil
Bedrock
Name the layer of soil that is being described below: Small loose inorganic material that is rich in nutrients due to high amounts of humus. Usually very dark in color.
Top Soil
Name the layer of soil that is being described below: Made up of partially weathered rock and contains no Humus.
Horizon C: Parent Material
What are the three examples of weathering the include acid that dissolves rock
Carbonic Acid, Lichen and Oxidation
What is it called rocks smash against each other and break?
abrasion
What is it called when plants or animals break rocks?
biological weathering
What is it called when water gets into cracks in a rock and repeatedly freezes and unfreezes breaking the rock over time?
Frost wedging
What is Chemical Weathering?
When rocks change in composition due to acid dissolving the rocks
What is Mechanical Weathering?
rock stays the same and is just broken down physically
What area of deposition is created due to slow moving water? The water is moving so slowly that plants begin to grow on top of it?
marshes
What area of deposition forms from waves moving sand to create a new landform that is in the ocean parallel to the coast?
Barrier Island
What are the agent (Causes) of erosion?
Wind, water, gravity and ice
A rock → experiences weathering and erosion → compacts and cements→ becomes a sedimentary rock→ gets taken deep underground → goes through extreme heat and pressure → become a
metamorphic rock
A rock → melts into lava→ Cools and Hardens → becomes
Igneous rock
A metamorphic rock → experiences weathering and erosion → compacts and cements→becomes a
Sedimentary Rock
How do Metamorphic Rocks form?
by the heat and pressure deep underground.
How do Sedimentary Rocks form?
Through the weathering, Erosion and Deposition of rocks into sediments. Those sediments then go through Compaction and Cementation to become Sedimentary rocks.
How do Igneous Rocks form?
Through the melting, cooling and hardening of magma or lava
What diagram shows the constant way in which rocks can go through processes to become different rocks?
Rock Cycle
Which property has to do with minerals breaking in a pattern?
cleavage
Which property has to do with minerals breaking randomly?
fracture
Which property is the least useful?
color
What is the scale that we use to measure the hardness of Minerals?
Mohs hardness Scale
Which property involves comparing a mineral to other minerals and objects by scratching them?
hardness
Which Property involves testing the color of a mineral’s powder by using a porcelain plate?
streak
Which property involves finding the relationship between the mass and the volume of a mineral?(Mass âž— Volume)
Density
What do we use to test minerals to identify what type of mineral it is?
Mineral Properties
What are the Characteristics of every Mineral?
Solid, Naturally Occurring, Inorganic, Fixed Composition, and Crystal Structure
A rock → experiences weathering and erosion → compacts and cements→ becomes a sedimentary rock→ gets taken deep underground → goes through extreme heat and pressure → become a
metamorphic rock
