12th Grade Geology Quizzes, Questions & Answers

Recent Geology Quizzes

If you fancy yourself a geology fanatic and are up to answering specifically designed questions that gauge your knowledge on Paricutin, try out this quiz. It is a simple set of questions therefore it will be easy to answer.

Questions: 61 | Attempts: 114 | Last updated: Jan 23, 2025

Sample Question
Lava flows are typically finer grained than intrusive igneous rocks. Why?

Intrusive magma is cooler because it is well insulated by the surrounding rock.

Intrusive magma flows onto the Earth's surface and cools very slowly, allowing many small mineral grains to grow.

The extrusive magma cools quickly so the mineral grains do not have time to grow.

The extrusive magma, because it is deep below the surface, cools very slowly, producing very small mineral grains.

Questions: 63 | Attempts: 1044 | Last updated: Mar 19, 2025

Sample Question
What are the basic differences between the disciplines of physical and historical geology?

Physical geology is the study of fossils and sequences of rock strata; historical geology is the study of how rocks and minerals were used in the past.

Historical geology involves the study of rock strata, fossils, and geologic events, utilizing geologic time scale as a reference; physical geology includes the study of how rocks form and of how erosion shapes the land surface.

Physical geology involves the study of rock strata, fossils, and deposition in relation to plate movements in the geologic past; historical geology charts how and where the plates were moving in the past.

None of the above—physical geology and historical geology are essentially the same.
