Jolene is comparing a rock from a riverbed and a rock from deep underground one is very smooth the other has very sharp edges explain which rock was probably found in each location?
The rock that is very smooth is most likely the one that was found in riverbed because the river would probably toss the rock around and weather it down until it is smooth. Therefore, that means that the other rock was most likely found underground.
What is an igneous rock that may have cooled deep beneath the earths surface and has a dark blackish green color?

In which conditions are microbes more likely to spread?
Any condition is good for a microbe, they can thrive in pretty much every habitat on earth. Microbes have even been found in rocks 7 kilometres below the earths surface, and I'm not talking a few, there are as many microbes 7 km down as there are on the earths surface.
How do internal and external forces cause changes to Earths surface?
Most common change to the Earths surface from internal forces would most likely be earthquakes and volcano eruptions. External forces could be considered meteor strikes, or possibly the effects of gravity on the oceans ( Tides ) Global warming is also melting glaciers and causing a growth in arid regions. kapm
