- 1.What is an earthquake?
- A. It is the swift vibration of the ground.
- B. It is the slow rising and sinking of the crust.
- C. It is the emission of gases and other materials.
- D. It is the outpouring of molten rocks.
Answer: A. The question tests the meaning of an earthquake. An earthquake is a swift vibration of the ground caused by movement in the Earth's crust. B is wrong because slow rising and sinking is not an earthquake; C is wrong because gas emission describes volcanic activity; D is wrong because molten rock flowing out is a volcanic eruption. Textbook: Grade 12, unit 1 · section 1.4. - 2.Which of the following is correct about chemical weathering?
- A. It is the process of wearing out of rock layers by temperature change.
- B. It occurs when weathered and original rocks have similar character.
- C. It involves a complete change in the internal structure of rocks.
- D. It is the process by which rocks disintegrate by animals and plants.
Answer: C. The question tests what happens to rocks during chemical weathering. Chemical weathering changes the rock’s internal structure and composition, so C is correct. Temperature change wears rock down physically; similar character does not describe chemical change; and damage by plants and animals is biological weathering. Textbook: Grade 12, unit 1 · section 1.4. - 3.Which mountain was formed by folding during Alpine orogeny period?
- A. Urals
- B. Caledonides
- C. Himalayas
- D. Appalachian
Answer: C. The key idea is that mountain ranges formed during different periods of mountain building. The Himalayas formed during the Alpine orogeny, meaning the period of mountain building associated with the Alps. A is wrong because the Urals formed much earlier; B is wrong because the Caledonides are older; D is wrong because the Appalachians are also older. Textbook: Grade 12, unit 1 · section 1.4. - 4.What is climate change?
- A. It is a change in the atmospheric condition over a long period of time.
- B. It is any change in the daily weather conditions of a given place.
- C. It is the change in global weather recorded on a daily basis.
- D. It is an instant variability of temperature and rainfall patterns.
Answer: A. The key idea is that climate change is a long-term change in atmospheric conditions. A describes change over a long period, so A is correct. B is wrong because daily weather changes are short-term; C is wrong because daily records do not define climate change; D is wrong because an instant change is not long-term climate change. Textbook: Grade 12, unit 2 · section 2.3. - 5.How does climate change impact water resources?
- A. By reducing the rate and intensity of evapotranspiration.
- B. By keeping global mean annual rainfall amount consistent.
- C. By reducing the amount of ice accumulated in the seas.
- D. By lowering the average sea level of global water bodies.
Answer: C. The key idea is that climate change affects the amount and distribution of water on Earth. Warming reduces the amount of ice, including sea ice, so C is the keyed choice. A is wrong because warming does not reduce evapotranspiration; B is wrong because rainfall amounts and patterns can change; D is wrong because rising seas do not lower average sea level.
