Which of the following are forces that directly break down rock in-situ?

In which type of environment would you observe biological weathering?

Which of the following sets of minerals is arranged from the lowest to the highest rate of weathering?

Which of the following processes breaks down rocks into smaller pieces by any physical means?

Which of the following is NOT a form of physical weathering?

Determine whether the two statements are true:

Statement 1:Exogenicprocesses include geological phenomena and processes that

                      originate externally tothe Earth’s surface.

Statement 2: They aregenetically related to the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere,

                      and therefore, toprocesses of weathering, erosion, transportation, deposition,

                      denudation, etc.

Which of the following sets of conditions best trigger mass wasting?

Determine whether the two statements are true:

Statement1: Higher slope means higher susceptibility to mass wasting and higher rate of  

                       erosion.

Statement2: On a gentle slope however, water tend to stay longer that leads to higher rate

                       of weathering.

Why is the movement of glacial erosion hard to see?

Which of the following is TRUE about rock stress?

Why does water have the power to split rocks? It is because when it freezes, it:

Which statement is correct for the deformation of rocks to occur?

Which of the following rock stresses cause forces to move towards each other?

When an earthquake occurs, rocks move anti-parallel to each other, causing rocks to slip and cleave. Which type of rock stress exemplifies this situation?

Why do metamorphic rocks rarely contain fossils?

Which process is described when rocks are squeezed until it folds or breaks in the convergent boundary?

Which of the following is a correct match?

Determine whether the two statements are true about physical/mechanical weathering:

Statement 1: When water gets inside the joints, alternate freezing, and thawing

                       episodes will stabilize the rock and shall not be apart.

Statement 2: When salt crystals are exerted by force, water evaporates

                       from pore spaces or cracks in rocks to form hive-like structure and can

                       cause the rock to fallapart.

In what way can we avoid erosion?

Which of the following agents best increases erosion?

Which of the following are effects of weathering and erosion that can be considered damaging to any human settlement?

Determine whether the two statements are true:

Statement 1: Acid rain slowly weathers limestone, marble, and other kinds of stone.

Statement 2: The effects of acid rain can often be seen on gravestones, making

                       names and other inscriptions are impossible to read. 

What process describes the dissolution of rocks and minerals at or close to the Earth's surface?

Glaciers can cause great erosion. This will happen if:

Statement1: water plucks rock pieces by entering cracks under the glacier, freezing, and then breaking off.

Statement 2: rock pieces are directly cut from the entire rock body, scooping up rock fragments, smoothing and polishing them.

Which of the following describes the outer layer of rocks subsequently peel off from their main mass due to successive expansion and contraction 

Which of the following conditions will best increase the rate of weathering ?

Which of the following is NOT a form of physical weathering?

Which of the following sets of minerals is arranged from the lowest to the highest rate of weathering?

Why is the movement of glacial erosion are hard to see
