Test

Let's get studying! This website has helpful practice problems. Try the "Rocks," "Porosity and Permeability," "Weathering and Erosion," and "Deposition" tests.

Know how to...

• use page 6 and 7 of the Earth Science Reference Table

• read graphs and tables

• compare particle size to deposition rate in water

• identify the different types of rocks based on their physical characteristics

• identify stream velocity based on particle size and weather it is rounded or angular

• define monomineralic and clastic

• use page 3 of the RT

• explain the change in surface area when a rock is crushed

• identify pictures/drawings of rocks based on features

• recognize foliation

• determine a rock type based on its origin/how it formed

• use the rock cycle
