Science 3

Front 1

Aggregate materials clumped together with other earth’s minerals

Back 1

Rocks

Front 2

Ignis is the latin word for

Back 2

fire

Front 3

These are crystallized from magma or molten. Volcanic materials that came from within the earth.

Back 3

Igneous

Front 4

“Remaining particles” formed from the deposition of different earth materials such as fossils.

Back 4

Sedimentary rock

Front 5

Meta means

Back 5

change

Front 6

morph means

Back 6

form

Front 7

Rocks derige from igneous or sedimentary rocks that were exposed to high pressure, temperature, or combo.

Back 7

Metamorphic rock

Front 8

A geologic process that occurs in the earths surface or crust. Driven by gravity, water, wind, and organism

Back 8

Exogenous processes

Front 9

Disintegration of rocks, soil, and minerals together with other materials through contact with the earths subsystem

Back 9

weathering

Front 10

Breakdowm of rocks by earths subsystemn mechanical forces concentrated along rock fractures

Back 10

Physical weathering

Front 11

break down through chemical reactions

Back 11

Chemical weathering

Front 12

Earth is worn away by wind, water or ice. Movement of rocks or debris from one place to another

Back 12

Erosion

Front 13

Movement of large landslides of rock materials down a slope or steep side

Back 13

Mass wasting

Front 14

When a large amount of sendiments usually rocks of various sizes falls down the slope

Back 14

debris flow

Front 15

Combined soil and water flow down

Back 15

Mud flow

Front 16

movement of soil along curved surfaces

Back 16

slump

Front 17

accumulation of materials such as soil, rocks, fragments, and soil particles settling on the ground

Back 17

Sedimentation

Front 18

Takes place within the interior of the earth. Driving force is thermal energy

Back 18

endrogenous processes

Front 19

Breakdowm caused by humans and organisms

Back 19

Biological weathering

Front 20

Happens when magma is generated and develops igneous rocks. Happens either under the surface or on the surface

Back 20

magmatism

Front 21

known as plutonism. Happens afyer magma is formed and tries to escape from the opening and may cause destructive explosions

Back 21

volcanism

Front 22

Formed inside

Back 22

intrusive

Front 23

Changing the material that make up a rock

Back 23

metamorphism

Front 24

Rocks push or squeeze together

Back 24

Compressional stress

Front 25

rocks pull apart, separate in opposite directions

Back 25

tensional stress

Front 26

Break away in different direction

Back 26

shear stress

Front 27

Developed the idea of continental drift

Back 27

Alfred wegener

Front 28

once a gigantic super continent meaning “all earth”

Back 28

Pangea

Front 29

Pangea started to break up into 2 smaller continents

Back 29

Laurasia and Gondwanaland

Front 30

Also calles lithospheric plates. Massive, and irregular slab of solid rocks

Back 30

tectonic plates

Front 31

Destructive plate boundary where two plates push forward to each other.

Back 31

Convergent

Front 32

Conservative plate that silde horizontally from one plate to another

Back 32

transform boundary

Front 33

constructive plate boundary, where 2 plates move apart from each other

Back 33

divergent
