Answer + Explanation:
1. The different ways tectonic plates move in relation to each other are:
convergent (where plates move into one another)
divergent (where plates move apart)
transform (where plates move sideways in relation to each other)
2. Convergent plate boundaries can result in:
earthquakes, volcanoes, and the formation of mountains.
The Himalaya Mountains are the result of convergent plate boundaries.
3. Landforms that are a result of divergent boundaries are rift valleys and mid-oceanic ridges.
Locations where this occurs are: Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Red Sea Rift, Baikal Rift Zone
, East African Rift, East Pacific Rise, Gakkel Ridge, Galapagos Rise, and Explorer Ridge.
4. Transforming plate boundaries results in shallow earthquakes, large lateral displacement of rock, and a broad zone of crustal deformation.
A location where this occurs is: San Andreas Fault in western California

Sound, earthquakes, and waves in water are mechanical waves because they require a physical ______________________ to transport energy.
Disturbance
Electromagnetic field
Location
Medium
Sound, waves are all propagation of energy. Transport of this energy require a physical medium. Thus option D is correct.
What is mechanical waves?Mechanical waves are a form of energy transfer by oscillation of matter and they require a medium to propagate. Sound wave is a longitudinal wave which is only passing through a medium of air. Air disturbance causes these sound waves.
Longitudinal waves are those where the direction of oscillation of matter is along the direction of propagation. Electromagnetic waves does not require a medium to travel.
Waves in water originates from the pressure difference in water earthquakes is caused by seismic waves which are transverse waves, where the oscillation of matter is perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
Hence, sound, earthquakes, and waves in water are mechanical waves because they require a physical medium.

Planets formed from small amounts of debris that were attracted together because of gravity.
D. Planets formed from small amounts of debris that were attracted together because of gravity.
A dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust formed our solar system roughly a billion years ago. A solar nebula—a whirling, swirling disk of material—was produced when this dust cloud collapsed. Gravity drew more and more material into the center. The sun was still forming and planets had not yet been created when the solar system was very young. The solar system consisted primarily of gas and dust.
D. Planets formed from small amounts of debris that were attracted together because of gravity.

Which phrase describes non-foliated rocks?
have grains in parallel layers
include quartzite and marble
tend to split along their bands
form from crystallized magma
Non-foliated rocks include quartzite and marble. Therefore, option (B) is correct.
What are the non-foliated rocks?Nonfoliated rocks less foliated texture because they commonly lack platy minerals like micas. They often result from regional metamorphism. Examples include quartzite, marble, hornfel, greenstone, and anthracite.
Marble is low to high-grade metamorphosed dolostone or limestone both of which are carbonate rocks, They are made of dolomite grains or interlocked calcite. Marble is very often carved in the artwork of palaces.
Quartzite is quartz sandstone that is medium to high-grade metamorphism. It is composed of interlocking grains of quartz and can be distinguished from sandstone because individual grains do not fall off during the rock is rubbed. Original sedimentary structures in quartzite will remain visible.

Which process begins the formation of sedimentary rock?
the movement of sediment
the cementation of rock sediment
the breakdown of rock into sediment
the buildup of sediment in one location
Answer:
Weathering breaks down pre-existing rock into particles, while erosion moves the particles to a site of deposition. These processes begin the formation of sedimentary rock.
Explanation:
Sediment is the term for the component that aids in the formation of sedimentary rock. All of the processes that lead to the sedimentation of organic and mineral particles are together referred to as sedimentation. The cementation of rock sediment forms sedimentary rock. The correct option is B.
What are sedimentary rock?Sedimentary rocks are created by the material being deposited at the Earth's surface and then being cemented there by bodies of water. Existing rocks or pieces of extinct animals that have accumulated on the surface of the Earth over time generate sedimentary rocks.
Sediment is crushed and cemented as a result of deep sediment burial, creating sedimentary rock. The three types of sedimentary rocks are categorized as Organic, Clastic, and Chemical Sedimentary Rocks. Lime stone, clay, sandstone, etc. are some Sedimentary rocks.
The sediment particle size and fluctuation is the best indicator of the type of rock.
Thus the correct option is B.
