CRCT Practice #1
Earth Science
1 A. Physical weathering
Water freezes and Expands (Physical movement)
For chemical : Must have the word Acid or must change the rock to something else
Frost wedging is an example of…
2 B. 15
Number of hours doing dishes
3 C. Low pressure and low density
Warm
Lighter
Less Dense
Cold
Heavier
More Dense
Properties of warm air
Less Pressure More Pressure
4 D. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
Oldest (bottom)
Youngest (top)
From oldest to the youngest
5 A. New moon
Solar Eclipse
New moon
Block the SUN
Full moon
6 A. Top Soil
Most Fertile soil
HumusTop Soil
Humus
7 D. Deep within the Earth
Metamorphic rocks most likely forms Heat and Pressure
Heat and pressure is usually deep in the Earth
8 C. The mountain was once below water
Seashells (sea animals) normally live in oceans.
Mountain
Mountain are formed on land and in the oceans
Seashell fossil discovered on top of a mountain, what is a good scientific reason?

29 days
9 B. 14
How many day between new and full moon ?
0 days
NewFull
10At which point are the oldest rocks?
OldNew
D. Z
Old
11 D. One year (365 ¼ days)
Winter
Spring
Summer
Fall
One revolution of Earth around the SUN equal to
1 yearSun
12 C. The length of the day would increase
If Earth’s rotation (spin) slowed
Day and Night would take longer.We would see longer days and longer nights.
I would take more time to make one spin
13 A. A
Top Soil, layer A
Which layer contains the humus?
Humus
14 C. Outer Core
Mantel
Outer core
Crust
Inner core Liquid
Iron
Molten Rock
Solid Rock
Solid Iron
Which layer is made up of liquid Iron and Nickel?
15 C. Inner core, outer core, mantle, crust
Mantel
Outer core
Crust
Inner core
Lowest Pressure
Highest Pressure
Highest to the lowest pressures
16 B. Drought
What could happen during long period of low precipitation?
Precipitation = rain, snow, sleet, hail… mostly RAIN
Low Precipitation = Very little rain = Dry
Drought = little or no rain
17 A. Y, W, X, Z
Soil horizons: the correct sequence
Bedrock
Decaying organic matter
Silt and Clay
Rock fragments4

18 B. Water
Renewable resource
Things that can be used over and over. Things that will not run out
Trees Water Sun Wind.
19 C. Continental Slope
Continental SHELF Continental SLOPE
Continental RISE
What is letter “Y” ?
20 D. Continental drift theory
PANGEA ( Supercontinent )
The continents are moving apart (at the mid-ocean ridges)
What theory do the maps support?
21 D. Winter
Winter
If It is SUMMER in the NORTH, then south is …
Summer
22 C. Choice “C”
How much of the Earth’s SURFACE is COVERED with water
A
DB
C
About 2/3
Equal
Too much land Too much water
23 C. Jupiter Which Planet is it
Earth
Mars
Jupiter
Pluto
1 moon
2 moons
30 -70 moons
3 moons
Gas Giants ( Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, & Neptune)
All have A LOT of moons.
24 D. Coal
Which is NON-renewable ?
Things that cannot be replaced. Once used, it is gone.
CoalWater SoilWind /AirRenewable Renewable Renewable CANNOT
Things that are burned are NOT renewable
25 D. The moon
Object that is responsible for the tides on Earth

26 C. A day would be longer
Time it took the Earth to rotate increased
Time increased = It took longer to rotate
It took more time to spin
It did not say it took longer to go around the Sun
27 D. 40 km/h
What would produce the highest waves
Strongest winds
28 B. Gravity
What is the force at “X” ?
Gravity
Without this force, The planet would fly away
Gravity holds the universe together

33 D. The moon would fly away from earth
What would happen to the moon if gravity is no more gravity?
Without gravity, The moon would fly away
