II. MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE

Direction: Identify whether the following statements are true or false. If the statement is true, write TRUE. If the
statement is false, underline the word or phrase which makes the statement false and write the correct answer on the
blank space provided before each number.
____________________ 1. It was termed as fossil fuels because they were formed hundreds of millions of
years ago by the action of heat and pressure on the remains of decaying bones
and flesh.
____________________ 2. Burning of coal has negative impacts on our environment & health as it emits large
amount of methane, a greenhouse gas that causes climate change.
____________________ 3. Natural gas is a black or dark brown combustible rock made primarily of carbon
and is formed action of pressure & heat on dead plants & animals.
____________________ 4. Most fossil fuels were formed during the Cretaceous Period when land is covered
with swamps and filled with organisms & plants approximately 360-286 mya.
____________________ 5. The higher the grade of coal, the cleaner it burns and the more versatile its uses.
____________________ 6. Volcanism occurs when magma makes its way to the surface.
____________________ 7. Mountains are landforms formed by the extrusion of lava or ejection of rock
fragments from a vent.
____________________ 8. A kalderin is formed when volcanoes summit is blown off by exploding gases or
when a volcano collapses into a partially empty magma.
____________________ 9. Volcanic eruptions are dangerous because it can kill in a way directly related to the
eruption e.g. pyroclastic flows; or by secondary effects like famine.
____________________ 10. Magma that reaches the surface of Earth is called pahoehoe.
____________________ 11. Magnetic field drives the movement of the continental plates.
____________________ 12. When two plates collide with each other, lakes are formed.
____________________ 13. Waterfalls, running rivers, tidal power, and ocean waves are great options for
geothermal power.
____________________ 14.Energy harnessed from the heat coming from Earth is called solar energy.
____________________ 15. Convection current was based on fact that as substance is heated, its density
decreases and rises to the surface until it is cooled and then sinks again.
