A rolling stone gathers no moss - should be 'bryophitic', I think.\n\n"Nomadic fragments of igneous and metamorphic strata, having non-zero quantities of angular momentum, accumulate no forms of bryophitic plant life"

OK since I got it and kinda missed it on the other then I will try this one.\n\nThe Y should stand for Yearly...as in Geology everything forms and deterioriates yearly. \n\nIf I thought you wanted a more philosphical answer I would have said that there is NO answer for the letter Y because it is the end of the word Geogology and there is no end to Geology no matter what happens to the earth....Thank you though for the earlier one, I did work hard for the extra credit.  Great questions...this one was a little shorter. Thanks Teach...Alda

Words don't have to be big or long or anything to be unique and descriptive. Just try elaborative sentences like "horses' mains are delicate shreds of gloss" or something like that.

The scientific study of the origin, history, and structure of the earth. \nThe structure of a specific region of the earth's crust. \nA book on geology. \nThe scientific study of the origin, history, and structure of the solid matter of a celestial body.

Or in shorter and more easily understood language...\n\nIt is a wedge of sediments and rocks scraped off the top of the down going plate in a subduction zone

As the motto of The Planetary Geology Division of the Geological Society of America says, ""When one planet simply isn't enough."\n\nSo my vote would be for "planetary geology".  :)

D. All of the sentences except this one are related to how you can become relaxed by going to the ocean/beach. Sentence D is about avoiding sunburn.

You've been given exhaustive lists, copied directly from websites without giving proper citation I imagine. \n\nHere is how to think about this question so that you can recall and understand the answer, without just memorizing a bunch of rock names.\n\nUse the rock cycle. Igneous rocks are of two groups, those formed within the earth and those formed by volcanism.  The volcanic rocks will show signs of that volcanism and will be things like black columnar basalt found in massive flows. Obsidian (volcanic glass) that flowed as liquid, scoria and pumice which are like foam because the dissolved gases expanded and made them bubble as they hardened. The other igneous group formed under the earth's surface, and includes things like granite where you can see the crystals that formed as it cooled and solidified. \n\nSedimentary rocks are also in two major informal groups (and a minor third). The first group of sedimentary rocks is clastics. These are formed by weathering, transport and deposition. Weatherings breaks down rocks like igneous, metamorphic and even sedimentary rocks and transport by wind, water, or gravity deposits these rocks as accumulations of clasts, (thus clastics). They become sandstone, shale, and conglomerate. The other major sedimentary group is carbonates. These rocks are 'born' because they are formed by living things. Ocean environments (and lakes too) have many organisms that make shells, corals that make reefs, and algae that make fine carbonate sediments (known as carbonate mud). Even bacteria get into the act helping to precipitate carbonates in many ocean environments. The third group of sedimentary rocks is those that are dissolved by water and deposited by evaporation or precipitation. These include gypsum, halite, sylvite, and many more. \n\nMetamorphic rocks all start life as one of the previous groups. You can metamorphose a granite into a granitic gneiss by burial, pressure and heat. You can metamorphose a basalt into an amphibolite. You can make limestone into marble. Sandstone turns into quartzite.\n\nRemember the rock cycle, associate the rocks as they move through it, and you won't have trouble remembering examples of rock types. Also don’t get tripped up by the difference between a mineral and a rock. Geologists sometimes use the two terms identically, but there is a formal difference between a rock (which is an impure mixture) and a mineral that is chemically consistent.

You know, it might be kinda fun asking questions through this format, but you will learn it better by actually doing the studying yourself. \n\nRemember that "conservation of matter" has to do with keeping stuff the same. The rock cycle is very broad and covers all the rock processes, both contact and regional metamorphism have changes in crystal types occurring, so sedimentation has to be the best illustration of conservation of matter. \n\nBut go back to your notes and your text and then rewrite the information in your own words to make it stick in your head.

no such - the phrase can be found as - advanced mammal like reptile or advanced mammal studies\n\nbut since it is homework then your teacher is probably looking for something like HUMAN as in an advanced ( on an evolutionary scale ) mammal ( teachers can be wrong too )

Igneous.  Not sedimentery because those are made up of worn down other rocks, and not metamorphic because they are rocks that were originially another sort of rock.

KISS\n\nKeep. It. Simple. Stupid.\n\nConstruct\n\nCarefully Organize Nonsense String To Remember Useful Casual Technique\n\nIn other words make up a sentence with the first letter of each word. The sentence doesn't even have to make sense. This was proposed in the previous answer but it was so long I forgot what it said when I fell asleep. Was that Cliff Claven perhaps?\n\nKISS me baby...
