Q

Deposition

A

the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment

Fold (in geology)

A

a fold occurs when one or a stack of originally flat and planar surfaces, such as sedimentary strata, are bent or curved as a result of permanent deformation

Q

Viscous (Viscosity)

A

refers to a fluid’s resistance to flowing. … As the lava cools on the surface, its viscosity increases and the flow slows down

Q

Lava

A

Lava is molten rock generated by geothermal energy and expelled through fractures in planetary crust or in an eruption, usually at temperatures from 700 to 1,200 °C (1,292 to 2,192 °F). … When it has stopped moving, lava solidifies to form igneous rock

Molten rock that issues from a volcano or fissure.

Q

Orogeny

A

An orogen or orogenic belt develops when a continental plate crumples and is pushed upwards to form one or more mountain ranges; this involves a series of geological processes collectively called orogenesis. Orogeny is the primary mechanism by which mountains are built on continents

Q

Phenocryst

A

an early forming, relatively large and usually conspicuous crystal distinctly larger than the grains of the rock groundmass of an igneous rock. (Such rocks that have a distinct difference in the size of the crystals are called porphyries, and the adjective porphyritic is used to describe them)

Crystals in an igneous rock that you can see

Q

Tectonic

A

relating to the structure of the earth’s crust and the large-scale processes which take place within it

17
Q

Extrude (Extruded)

A

the breaking-out of igneous rock from below the Earth’s surface. Any volcanic product reaching the surface becomes extrusive material whether it is ejected through a volcano’s cone or through pipe-like channels or fissures in its crust

18
Q

Catastrophic (catastrophe)

A
  • involving or causing sudden great damage or suffering,

* involving a sudden and large-scale alteration in state.

19
Q

Rift

A

Linear zone where the Earth’s crust and lithosphere are being pulled apart

20
Q

Inundate (Inundatory)

A

the rising of a body of water and its overflowing onto normally dry land

21
Q

Strata

A

a stratum (plural: strata) is a layer of sedimentary rock or soil, or igneous rock that were formed at the Earth’s surface, with internally consistent characteristics that distinguish it from other layers.

22
Q

Aquifer

A

an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt)
