Your class goes on a field trip to observe drilling machinery. The geologists at the drill site show you displays of drilled rocks to compare different types of drills and methods. The drilled holes in one rock display are significantly larger than the holes drilled in the display next to it. Given this information, which statement is correct? (1 point)
O The rock display with smaller holes shows copper drilling, which is deep underground The rock display with smaller holes shows petroleum drilling, which is closer to the surface
The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground
The rock display with larger holes shows copper drilling, which is closer to the surface
Item 10
Item 12
The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground.
The correct statement is: The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground.
Oh, rock displays! The only rock displays I'm used to are on stage at a concert! But hey, let me try to rock this question for you. So, if one display has larger holes and the other has smaller holes, it means that the drilling in the display with larger holes went deeper, right? And since petroleum drilling is generally done deeper underground, it would make sense that the rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground. So, my answer is... The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground. Rock on! 🤘🏻
To determine which statement is correct, we need to analyze the information given. The rock display with larger holes signifies a drill method that creates bigger holes. We also know that the drill site is being observed by geologists and that the rocks are being used to compare different types of drills and methods.
Based on this information, we can conclude that the rock display with larger holes shows a drilling method that is deeper underground. This is because drilling deeper requires larger holes to access the desired resources. Additionally, since the rock display is being used to compare different drills and methods, it is reasonable to assume that the drilling method for the larger holes is likely petroleum drilling, as petroleum is typically found at deeper depths. Therefore, the correct statement is:
The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground.
