What is a type of rock that forms from the cooling of molten rock at or below the surface
What is a igneous rock?
100
What is a type of rock that forms when particles from other rocks or the remains of plants and animals are pressed and cemented together
What is the definition of sedimentary rock?
100
What is the process of coral animals dying out ,their skeletons remain. More corals build on top of them ,gradually forming a coral reef
What is the formation of coral reefs?
100
What is forces deep inside Earth and at the surface produce a slow cycle that builds, destroys, and changes the rocks in the crust.
What is the rock cycle?
200
What is a dark-colored that has low silica content
What is basalt?
200
What is a formation in the oceanic crust and What is a formation when magma hardens beneath Earth's surface
What is the difference between a extrusive and intrusive rocks?
200
What is erosion,deposition,compaction,and cementation
What is the 4 step process to sedimentary rock?
200
What is limestone deposits that began as coral reefs provide evidence of how plate motions have changed Earth's surface. These deposits also provide evidence of past environments.
What evidence do limestone deposits from coral reefs provide about Earth's history?
200
What is plate movements starting the rock cycle by helping to form magma, the source of igneous rocks. Plate movements also cause faulting, folding, and other motions of the crust that help to form sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
What is the role of plate tectonics in the rock cycle?

How would you define rock-forming material?
300
What is igneous rock such as rhyolite,pegmatite, and porphyry can vary greatly in texture depending on whether they are intrusive or extrusive
What is igneous rock textures?
