Plate Tectonics and the Rock Cycle Quick Check 1 of 41 of 4 Items Question Which kind of rock is formed when lava leaves a volcano and cools? Responses sedimentary sedimentary - no response given igneous igneous - no response given metamorphic metamorphic...

The heat energy from convection currents in magma also drives the rock cycle. Convection and movement of the plates causes rock to move between Earth’s surface and interior. It provides the heat that changes rocks inside Earth to form metamorphic rocks. I...

A convection current is the movement of particles within a fluid when the fluid is heated. Convection currents occur in the Earth, too. Where do convection currents of magma happen? * 1 point Captionless Image In the mantle and the crust. In the mantle an...

Based on the diagram, what rock is formed due to high heat and pressure? * 1 point Captionless Image Sedimentary Metamorphic Igneous

Physical weathering of rocks occurs when rocks break down into smaller pieces. Which of the following could cause weathering? * 1 point Captionless Image Air temperature Water Wind Plant growth All of the above

Radiation is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. Solar radiation comes from the sun. Earth absorbs radiation from the sun. About 71 percent of radiation from the sun is absorbed. It is absorbed by Earth’s atmosphere and Earth’s surface. What...
