What are the 3 types of rocks?
What is Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic.
100
Can crystals be found on/inside Igneous rocks?
What is Yes
200
What are the 2 types of Igneous rocks?
What is Intrusive and Extrusive.
200
What are the 2 types of Metamorphic rocks?
What is Foliated and Non-foliated.
200
What are the Sedimentary rocks typically found?
What is where water is or was.
200
How does a Metamorphic rock turn into magma?
What is melting.
200
Can Igneous rocks only be formed above ground?
What is No. Igneous rocks can be formed inside the mantle by cooled magma.
300
Will Intrusive or Extrusive rocks have larger crystals?
What is Intrusive.
300
How are Foliated rocks identified?
What is a metamorphic rock with grains arranged in thin flat bands.
300
What are the 4 steps of how Sedimentary rocks are formed?
What is 1. Erosion 2. Deposition 3. Compaction 4. Cementation
300
How does a Sedimentary rock become a Metamorphic rock?
What is Heat and Pressure.
300
Are the lines in Sedimentary rocks called Bands or Layers?
What is Layers.
400
Which cools faster, Intrusive or Extrusive rocks?
What is Extrusive.
400
How are Non-foliated rocks identified?
What is a Metamorphic rock that have grains arranged randomly.
400
What is 1 type of an Organic Sedimentary rock?
What is Limestone
400
How does and Igneous rock turn into a Sedimentary rock?
What is Weathering and Erosion, turns rock into sediment, then the sediment gets compacted and cemented into a Sedimentary rock.
400
Is Limestone the only Organic Sedimentary rock?
What is No. There are 2. Limestone and Coal.
500
Why do some Igneous rocks have a glassy surface?
What is because they are Extrusive Igneous rocks which cool quicker making the grains smaller in size.
500
How are Metamorphic rocks formed?
What is when Sedimentary, Igneous or Metamorphic rocks are put under tremendous heat from the core and pressure from the layers of the earth.
500
What is 1 type of a Clastic Sedimentary rock?
What is Sandstone.
500
How does magma turn into an Igneous rock?
What is the magma cools/hardens.
