Multiple Choice
Choose the correct answer (50 points)

1. What process is responsible for the formation of sedimentary rocks?

• Cooling and solidification


• Melting and crystallization
• Compression and cementation
• Erosion and weathering

2. Which type of rock is formed from the cooling and solidification of molten lava or magma?
• Sedimentary b. Igneous c. Metamorphic d. Foliated
3. How does the rate of cooling affect the texture of igneous rocks?
• Faster cooling results in fine-grained rocks, while slower cooling results in coarse-grained
rocks.
• Slower cooling results in fine-grained rocks, while faster cooling results in coarse-grained
rocks.
• Both fast and slow cooling produce the same texture in igneous rocks.
• Rate of cooling has no impact on the texture of igneous rocks.

4.What role do plants play in the process of soil formation?


• They release minerals into the soil.
• They break down rocks into smaller particles through physical weathering.
• They add organic material to the soil through decay.
• They compact the soil through their roots.
5. What is the study of the Earth's structure, composition, and processes called?

• Geography b. Biology c. Geology d. Astronomy

• Melting b. Deposition c. Erosion d. Compaction

7. What type of rock is typically formed from the cooling and solidification of lava on the Earth's
surface?

• Igneous b. Sedimentary c. Metamorphic d. Foliated

8. How does sedimentary rock typically form?

• Through the cooling and solidification of molten rock


• By the compaction and cementation of sediments
• Through the application of heat and pressure to existing rocks
• By the rearrangement of mineral crystals in existing rocks

9. In which part of the Earth does the majority of metamorphism take place?

• Earth's crust c. Earth's outer core


• Earth's inner core d. Earth's mantle

10. What happens to sedimentary rocks if they undergo further heat and pressure during the rock
cycle?

• They melt to form magma.


• They become sediment.
• They transform into metamorphic rocks.
• They remain unchanged.

11. In a circuit with a battery, bulb, and wire, if the wire is replaced with a longer one, what is likely to
happen to the brightness of the bulb?
• Increase c. Remain the same
• Decrease d. It depends on the battery voltage
12. If you connect two bulbs in series with a battery, how will the brightness of the second bulb
compare to the brightness of the first bulb?

• Brighter c. Dimmer
• Same brightness d. Not enough information

13. Which component in an electrical circuit transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy?

• Battery b. Bulb c. Motor d. Buzzer

14. If you add more batteries to a circuit with multiple bulbs in parallel, what is likely to happen to the
overall brightness of the bulbs?

• Increase c. Remain the same


• Decrease d. It depends on the type of batteries

15. When a bulb is connected to a battery, what type of energy transformation occurs in the bulb?

• Electrical to mechanical
• Electrical to light
• Light to electrical
• Mechanical to electrical
