You must have this to have a sedicmentary rock
What is sediment
What does Igneous mean?
What is fire or of fire?
What do the words meta and morph mean?
What is change of form
This is how rock sediment moves from undear the earth.
What is the rock cycle?
Clastic is a rock form that is made up of limestone and another rock.
What is Sedimentary
This process takes elements of weather and uses them to transport sediment into layers
What is weathering
Magma lives inside the earth's mantle. Rocks formed here are called what?
How are Metamorphic rocks formed?
What is when sediment or materials go under high pressure and heat
How are rocks classified?
What is by where they are formed.
Limestone is an example of this type of rock
What is sedimentary
This is the process where wind, rain and water dump sediment to form layers
Lava that flows outside of the earth's surface creates this.
What is Extrusive rock
There are two different types of metamorphic rock. This type comes in contact with magma to form.
What is contact?
The beach is an example of what?
What is sediment?
What is the process called that creates metamorphic rock?
What is metamorphisis
When fossils of a land animal and marine animal are found in the same sedimentary rock what can you infer about what layers they were found in?
What is the land animal fossil was probably in a different layer than the marine animal fossil( the land animal probably being in the continental crust and the other in the oceanic crust)
What is the difference between magma and lava?
What is magma and lave are two different states of matter
This second type of metamorphic rock forms large rocks in mountainous regions.
What is regional
What is the Geosphere?
What is the make up of the earths layers
Minerals can become rocks. But rocks are not minerals. Rocks contain this but minerals dont.
What are organisms or organic
The part of the process where ground water flows through the layers creating what?
What two things do Igneous rocks need to form?
What is magma/heat and cooling
Metamorphic rock becomes sediment under what conditions?
What is weathering, and erosion
Name the four or more parts of the earth
What are the crust, oceanic crust, continental crust, outer mantle, mantle, inner mantle, outer core, and inner core
This type of rock is sedimentary. It forms when plant and animal remains pile up on each other
