what is weathering?

weathering-The mechanical and chemical process that change Earth's surface over time.

100

what are examples of Sedimentary rocks?

clastic, chemical, biochemical 

100

a type of rock formed when molten rock, called magma when underground and lava when on the surface, cools and solidifies?

igneous rock

100

What comes after sediment ?

Deposition , Compaction, cementation

100

How do igneous rocks formed?

When  the lava  crystallize it becomes an igneous rock,it cools  quickly after coming in in contact with the cooler air around it

200

what is Erosion?

The movement of the weathered material or sediment from one location to another.

200

what are examples of Metamorphic rocks?

foliated/non-foliated: regional/contact

200

Is a material that's formed where  rocks are broken down into smaller pieces or dissolved in the water as rock erode?

sedimentary rock

200

What happens  after extreme temperatures and  Pressure?

 Metamorphic rocks 

200
how do sedimentary formed?

When  the lava  crystallize it becomes an igneous rock,it cools  quickly after coming in in contact with the cooler air around it

300

what is Deposition?

Laying down or settling in eroded material

300

what are examples of Igneous rock?

Intrusive/Extrusive

300

a rock that has been transformed from its original form by intense heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust, causing changes in its mineral composition and texture?

metamorphic

300

Happens before  weathering  and erosion?

 Igneous rocks 

300

how do Metamorphic rocks formed?

when existing rocks, like sedimentary or igneous rocks, are significantly altered by intense heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust.

400

what is Uplift ?

the process where rocks are pushed upwards from deep within the Earth's crust to the surface due to tectonic forces

400

what are examples of magma?

andesitic magma, basaltic magma, granitic magma

400

Igneous rock that forms as magma cools underground ?

intrusive rocks 

400

What happens after melting?

magma 

400

where are  sedimentary rocks from?

from deposits of pre-existing rocks or pieces of once-living organism that accumulate on the Earth's surface

500

what is Magma and lava?

Molten or liquid rock underground pools minerals crystals for molten rock then erupts on the Earth surface which is called lava

500

what are examples of uplift

mountain ranges like the Himalayas and  regions like the Hudson Bay.

500

When a volcanic material erupts and cools and crystallize on Earth's surface it forms into a type of igneous rocks called?

extrusive rocks 

500

What comes after deposition compaction and cementation?

 sedimentary rocks 

500

where are igneous rocks  from

the cooling and solidification of molten rock, called magma when it's underground and lava when it erupts onto the Earth's surface
