Where do sedimentary rock form from
Accumalated sediement
Where is the process of metamorphism occur.
Deep Underground
How do igneous rocks form.
THe form from the cooling and solidification of molten rock
This is the continuous, never ending process by which rocks change from one type to another.
rock cycler
this process involves the movement of sediments from its source to a new location,
erosion
What is one type of sedimentary rocks?
What is Clastic, Chemical, Organic
How are they formed.
Intense heat and pressure
How fast do igneous rocks cool.
What are the three types of rocks that make up the rock cycle
Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic
the specific coarse grained igneous rocks forms when magma cools slowly undergound
granite
What is an example of a sedimentary rocks?
Use your brain!
What is an example of a metamorphic rock
Marble, Slate, Quartzite
Unlike intrusive rocks that cool underground, this term describes igneous rocks that from from lava cooling on the Earth's surface
extrusive
the process of breaking down rock
weathering
the type of rock can be formed from plant and animal remains often containing fossils
Sedimentary rock
Are sedimentary rocks valuable, and why?
They are crucial for providing resources like coal
True or false, A metamorphic rock can melt.
FALSE
This dark fine grained extrusive rocks make up most of the ocean floor and is the mist common rock type in Earth's crust.
Basalt
this substance is found below Earth's surface and cool to form intrusive igneous rocks
Magma
this rock is often thought as the first rock, and type of rock can turn into another, allowing sedimentary rocks to into quartzite
Sandstone
