What is sedimentary rock?
100
Rocks that were pressed into the Earth's crust and changed by heat and pressure under there.

True or False — every rock must become sedimentary before turning into a metamorphic rock. Explain.

: False — any rock type can change directly into another type depending on conditions.

We know we can find crystals in igneous rock but what is another property? 

What are gas bubbles?

400

Why might fossils only be found in sedimentary rocks and not in igneous or metamorphic rocks?

Because the heat and pressure in igneous and metamorphic formation would destroy fossils, while sedimentary rock forms at Earth’s surface under gentle conditions.

Metamorphic rocks are only exposed due to...

What is weathering & erosion?

500

What determines the size of crystals in an igneous rock

The rate of cooling

What process must happen for any rock type to become igneous again?

It must melt into magma and then cool.
