What best defines deposition?

Deposition is the process in which sediments, soil, or rocks are added to a landform's surface by natural processes like erosion, gravity, or wind. It plays a vital role in shaping the Earth's surface by building up landforms like deltas, sand dunes, and alluvial plains.


What are some non examples of texture in rocks?

Texture in rocks is not the same as color or shape. Texture refers to the size, shape, and arrangement of mineral grains or crystals within a rock, while color refers to the outward appearance of the rock. Similarly, shape in rocks refers to their physical form or structure, and not the internal arrangement of mineral grains which defines texture.


What statement best describes the relationship between rocks and minerals?

Rocks are made up of minerals. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks and give rocks their physical and chemical properties. Rocks can consist of one or multiple types of minerals.


What is the term used to describe igneous rocks or magma rich in Fe-Mg content and low in silica?

Mafic rocks or magma are rich in Fe-Mg content and low in silica. These rocks typically have dark colors and contain minerals such as olivine, pyroxene, and amphibole. Examples of mafic rocks include basalt and gabbro.


What is the best way to find the densities between two rocks?

The best way to find the densities between two rocks is by conducting a displacement test. You will need to measure the volume of water displaced when the rocks are submerged, and then calculate the density using the mass of the rocks and the displaced water.
