--------------------
1. The dots on the map below show the present locations of living coral reefs. Site X indicates an area of fossil coral reefs preserved in rocks formed during the Jurassic Period.
Which inference is best supported by this map? (1) The climate at site X during the Jurassic Period was colder than the present climate at site X. (2) Site X was covered by warm ocea.!1water during the Jurassic Period. (3) She X has drifted southward since the Jurassic Period. (4) The coral at site X evolved from ocefui-d\velling animals into land-dwelling animals after the Jurassic Period. 2. Earth's outer core is best inferred to be (1) liquid, with an average density of 3
approximately 4 g/cm (2) liquid, with an average density of approximately 11 g/cm3 (3) solid, with an average density of approximately 4 g/cm3 (4) solid, with an average density of approximately 11 g/cm3 3. Most of the oceanic crust is composed of rock material similar to (1) basalt (3) sandstone (2) granite
(4) limestone
4. Daily weather forecasts are based primarily on (1) ocea,n currents
seismic data
5. As depth within the Earth's interior increases, the (1) density, temperature, and pressure decrease
(2) density, temperature, and pressure increase (3) density and temperature decrease, but pressure mcreases (4) density decreases, but temperature and pressure increase 6, \\Thieh geologic event most likely caused the Appalachian Mountains to form? (1) the melting of a subducted oceanic plate
(2) the collision of North America and Africa (3) the eruption of an ancient VOlca..'1lcmOili'1tain chain (4) the massive erosion and deposition of Mesozoic rocks
(3) phases of the Moon aIr-mass movements
