A. oil B. soil C. coal 5th Grade Question 7 Answer B. Soil Return 5th Grade Question 8 How are fossil fuels made? 5th Grade Question 8 Answer They are made by heat and pressure on top of dead plants and animals buried deep in the ground. Return 5th Grade Question 9 What type of sedimentary stone can you find fossils in? 5th Grade Question 9 Answer Limestone Return 5th Grade Question 10 What deduction can we make about the past if a fossil of a cactus is discovered in a tropical rain forest? A. The climate has changed from hot and dry to warm and wet. B. Wind blew cactus seeds into the rain forest. C. The cactus once thrived in wet environments. D. The cactus was probably carried to the tropical rain forest. 5th Grade Question 10 Answer A. The climate has changed from hot and dry to warm and wet. Return 5th Grade Question 11 Which of the following conclusions can you draw from the rock layers? A. Rock layer B is the youngest layer B. Rock layer C was formed after layer D C. Rock layer A is the oldest layer D. The youngest layer is D 5th Grade Question 11 Answer B. Rock layer C was formed after layer D Return 5th Grade Question 12 How are sedimentary rocks formed? 5th Grade Question 12 Answer Sediments are deposited from wind and erosion, they build up and are pressed down by other rocks, they heat up to form a layer of sedimentary rock. Return 5th Grade Question 13 Name three inexhaustible resources. 5th Grade Question 13 Answer Water, Sun and Wind Return 5th Grade Question 14 Name five alternative resources for energy. 5th Grade Question 14 Answer Solar, Wind, Geothermal, Hydroelectric, Biofuels Return 5th Grade Question 15 True or False: An inexhaustible resource can be used up. 5th Grade Question 15 Answer FALSE Return 5th Grade Question 16 Give three reasons why using alternative energy resources is beneficial. 5th Grade Question 16 Answer They are created from renewable and inexhaustible resources, they do not cause pollution, and they reduce our need for fossil fuels. Return 5th Grade Question 17 What does it mean if you find a fossil on top of a mountain? 5th Grade Question 17 Answer The mountain formed in an area that was once covered by the ocean. Return 5th Grade Question 18 A. B. C. D. Which of these is an example of erosion? Light shining into a mountain Wind blowing away sediment Rain breaking down rock All of the above 5th Grade Question 18 Answer B. Wind blowing away sediment Return Million Dollar Question 5th Grade Science Changes to the Land $1,000,000 Question Name 3 different ways that the Earth’s surface can be changed and what each means! 1,000,000 Answer Weathering – breaking down and wearing away of rock Erosion – carrying away sediments by wind, water and/or ice Deposition – sediment is dropped in a new place Return Thanks for Playing!
