Have a gneiss day
Igneous is bliss
I lava you
I don't want to chalk about it
Clastic categories
100

Metamorphic rocks form when these conditions are present. 

What is heat and pressure? [And/or hot water]

100

Igneous rocks form from this process. 

Molten rock cools and solidifies. 
100

Molten rock under Earth's surface. 

What is magma? 

100

Sedimentary rocks are the only ones that contain this. 

What are fossils?

100

Mining for this type of organic sedimentary rock is very controversial. 

What is coal? 

200

Pressure does this when you go deeper into the Earth. 

What is increase? 

200

Igneous rocks are classified based on ___________ and ____________. 

What is texture/crystal size and mineral composition?
200

Lava cools faster than magma because it is ________________. 

Above/on the surface of the Earth. 

200

This is the smallest type of sediment. 

What is clay? 

200

The transportation of sediment. 

What is erosion? 

300

The formation of metamorphic rocks in large areas of the Earth's crust, usually when tectonic plates collide. 

What is regional metamorphism? 

300

These were the first types of rocks on Earth. 

What are igneous? 

300

Silica-poor mafic magma forms __________-colored rocks. 

What is dark? 

300

These types of sedimentary rocks are made from evaporites or precipitates. 

What are chemical or crystalline sedimentary rocks? 

300

This metamorphic rock would be classified as:

What is foliated? 

400

Ores are made through chemical reactions with hot water during this type of metamorphism. 

What is hydrothermal? 

400

This rock formed underground, therefore it is called this.

What is intrusive? 

400

These are two of the things that determine the composition of magma. 

What are [temperature, pressure, water content, mineral composition]?

400

Limestone is often this type of sedimentary rock. 

What is organic? 

400

The recycling of rocks from one type to another. 

What is the rock cycle? 

500

Ms. Marinova wants to hike a 2,600-mile trail through these mountains, which are mostly made of metamorphic rock. 

What are the Appalachians? 

500

Name this rock. 

What is rhyolite?

500
This type of lava is silica-rich, goopy, and results in explosive eruptions. 

What is felsic lava? 

500

This category of sedimentary rocks are made from pieces of rock cemented together. 

What are clastic?

500

Rocks are classified into igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary based on this. 

What is their formation history?
