Flashcards: Identify patterns of change in rock formations

What patterns of change are noticeable in the graphic of the rock formation below?

Colorado River, Grand Canyon, Landscape

Your answer:

The rock formation gets rougher as it progresses upwards.

Your answer:

The rock formation gets smoother as it progresses upwards.

Your answer:

The colors of the rock get lighter as the rock formation progresses upwards.

Correct answer:

The colors of the rock get darker as the rock formation progresses upwards.

Explanation:

This is a graphic of a canyon, which is a type of rock formation. Changes can be noticed in the formation as it progresses upwards. The colors are light, almost gray color towards the bottom of the canyon closest to the water. The canyon is darker and burnt orange as it moves upwards. As the canyon changes in age, it also changes in colors. A canyon like the one pictured is an obvious way to see how the Earth has changed over the years.

Explanation:

This sandstone on the beach shore demonstrates the patterns of change that can be seen in rock formations. The rock changes colors as it progresses; there are stripes of different oranges, tans, and reds. Some sections are covered in holes, and those parts are grey, black, and white. There are changes in textures throughout the rock formation. Some parts are smooth, and others are covered in holes. As rocks are weathered and eroded with wind and water over the years, there are visible changes to the formations and structure.
