What do we call the washing away and wearing away of soil over time – for example, in a flood?
Excessive rain Flooding Erosion metamorphosis
![Page 15: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sedimentary rock forms by which of the following processes?
Erosion Breaking apart Heating and hardening layering
![Page 16: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Extinct means
No longer in existence – all gone forever Endangered Imaginary Very rare
![Page 17: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What evidence lets us learn about things that are now extinct?
Fossils The internet Bill Nye the science guy Sponge Bob Square Pants
![Page 18: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What are three attributes of rocks that scientists observe, in order to identify and classify rocks?
Green, red, blue Texture, feeling, smell Color, texture, hardness Harness, softness, chalkiness
![Page 19: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What might you conclude if you found fossils of sea shells outside your school?
The beach is close by. Shells are so cool! The area at the school was underwater
millions of years ago. The area at the school was never near
water
![Page 20: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
A ditch on the playground, where the water runs from the pavement keeps getting deeper, and deeper and wider and wider each time it rains. What is causing this?
Kids are digging the dirt. Rain water is eroding the land near the
ditch. Bulldozers must be working near the
ditch. The ditch needs to be deeper.
![Page 21: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Fossils are not found in metamorphic rock because
All metamorphic rock is under water. Animals don’t like metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks are never found. Metamorphic rocks are made with
pressure and heat, which would destroy any fossils.
![Page 22: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
If you found hot weather animal fossils in a place on earth that is now very cold and covered with ice, you might conclude
That the weather was much warmer there millions of years ago.
That the temperature was the same everywhere.
That the animals were lost. That polar bears are really cute.
![Page 23: If you were a tomato plant, what type of soil would you most likely want to grow in? Sand Clay Loam Silt](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc35503460f94ab519e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The hardened remains of a living thing that lived long, long ago (plant or animal) are called
Erosion Fossils Rocks and minerals metamorphic
