Which characteristics are used to classify a sedimentary rock?
What is size and shape of their grains
200
Metamorphic rock can be formed only where on the Earth? Inside/outside/either
What is inside
200
What can be determined by studying the shape of clastic grains?
What is distance they have been transported
300
Water, wind, heat and ice break down rocks and move grains of rock from their source by what processes?
What is weathering and erosion
300
What type of rock forms when magma cools and crystallizes beneath the earth's surface?
What is intrusive igneous rock.
300

This Sedimentary rock is made primarily of calcite

(chemical) limestone

300
A rock permanently changes shape by bending and folding during what process?
What is plastic deformation.

                DOUBLE JEOPARDY



What is by the way they were formed. example: igneous - in or out of the earth with lava / magma sedimentary - erosion/compaction/cementation, chemical, biochemical 

metamorphic - below the Earth's surface with extreme pressure and tempurature.

400
Rock cycle processes that involve extreme temperature, pressure, and melting occur where?
What is beneath the Earth's surface
400
When gas-rich lava erupts from a volcano, gases escape and leave holes in the rock. Name a rock that demonstrates this.
What is pumice
400
When minerals crystallize directly from water what type of sedimentary rock forms?
What is a chemical sedimentary rock.
400
