Igneous Rocks
Sedimentary rocks
Metamorphic rock
Rock Cycle
Which type of rock?
100
Igneous rocks can be found around or in these.
What is a volcano?
100
This is what sedimentary rocks start off as.
What is sediment?
100
These are rocks that can become metamorphic rocks.
What are sedimentary, igneous, and most metamorphic rocks?
100
The three categories all rocks can be put into.
What are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic?
100

Limestone forms when the shells of sea creatures are cemented together

Sedimentary rock

200

What type of rock

Obsidian forms when lava cools quickly at Earth's surface

What is Igneous

200
The movement of sediment.
What is erosion?
200
These two things are required for a metamorphic rock to form.
What are heat and pressure?
200
A rock that was sediment, then went under pressure, then was melted down and crystalized or cooled inside a volcano is this type of rock.
What is a igneous rock?
200

Conglomerate forms when small pebbles are compacted and cemented together

Sedimentary

300
Rock that is found inside a volcano is most likely make from this type of molten rock.
What is magma?
300

What acts as glue to cement sediment together into rock?

Melted rock

Minerals dissolved in water

Smaller pieces of sediment

Minerals dissolved in water

Minerals like quartz or calcite dissolve in water and then settle between the pieces of sediment. Over time, they harden and act like glue, sticking the tiny pieces together to form solid rock.

300
Sandstone (sedimentary) must go through his to become Quartzite.
What is heat and pressure?
300
These types of rocks can become sediment by weathering.
What is any type of rock?
300

Pumice forms when lava with water vapour in it cools, leaving air bubbles in the rock

Igneous

400

Any type of rock can turn into an igneous rock

True or False

True

400

Sandstone forms when grains of sand are compacted and cemented together

Sedimentary

400

Marble forms when limestone is exposed to heat and pressure- what type of rock?

Metamorphic

400

Rocks constantly change between three types of rocks in a process called:  weathering/erosion, the rock cycle, or geology

The rock cycle
400

Gneiss forms when heat and pressure change in the crystal shapes in granite

Metamorphic
500

What is the difference between magma and lava?

Magma is underground

Lava is on the earth's surface

500

Weathering is caused by..

Moving water

Plants and animal activity

Both plants/animals and water

Both plants/animals and water

500

when a metamorphic rocks form ,the heat is not hot enough to: 

Change the appearance

Change the rock's crystal shapes

Melt the rock

Melt the rock


When metamorphic rocks form, the heat and pressure are intense but not hot enough to melt the rock. Instead, they cause changes in the rock's texture and crystal structure without turning it into a liquid.

500

What are rocks?

Living organisms

Minerals stuck together

Minerals stuck together

Granite forms when magma cools slowly underground

Igneous
