_____________________ 4. The origin of the term was said as a decrease in fish catch off the coast of Peru near
Christmas time.
_____________________ 5. The thin gaseous layer that envelopes the lithosphere.
_____________________ 6. A constant exchange of heat and moisture between the atmosphere and the hydrosphere
_____________________ 7. The most important processes by which the heat on the Earth's surface is redistributed
_____________________ 8. Includes the rocks of the crust and mantle, the metallic liquid outer core, and the solid
metallic inner core.
_____________________ 9. An important process in shaping the surface of the Earth.
_____________________ 10. The set of all life forms on Earth and covers all ecosystems
_____________________ 11. A process in which CO2 is sequestered from the atmosphere, while oxygen is released as a
byproduct.
_____________________ 12. The thickest layer (2900km thick) of the earth with a temperature of about 1600-4000ᵒF
and is 66% of earth’s mass consisting of flowing molten rock.
_____________________ 13. Used for digging fossilized evidence of ancient life in Mars.
_____________________ 14. An extrasolar planet orbiting the empirical habitable zone of the sun-like star Kepler-22.
_____________________ 15. A group of metamorphic rocks wherein the mineral crystals are aligned, or arranged in
bands or layers.
_____________________ 16. Rocks in which the fragments were cemented together and include the sediments: sand,
silt, clay, pebbles, and boulders.
_____________________ 17. A type of igneous rock that takes longer to cool and has larger visible mineral crystals.
_____________________ 18. Igneous rocks which were formed when lava cooled quickly above ground and is so light
causing it to float on water.
_____________________ 19. Formed from magma and were cooled and solidified (hardened) slowly deep underground.
_____________________ 20. A hypothesis which states that the solar system was made from a rotating gaseous cloud
that cools and contracts in the middle to form the sun and the rest into a disc that become
the planets.
