What are compaction and cementation?
Why are the layers of a metamorphic rock wavy, while sedimentary rock has straight, flat layers?

What is texture?
__________ igneous rocks have larger crystals than the other kind of igneous rocks.
What is intrusive?
This type of sedimentary rocks form when dead plants from millions of years ago mineralizes. We use it to heat homes
What is an organic sedimentary rock?
This process exposes rocks to Earth's surface so weathering can act on it.

Process in which wind, water, or ice carry away broken up rock.
What is erosion?
This effects the crystal size in igneous rocks.
What is cooling rates?
When rocks crack due to the expansion of water
What is freeze/thaw weathering?
