100
Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic rocks fit into this category.
What are Rock Families?
200
These are little pieces of rocks, pebbles, mineral grains, and shell fragments that eventually form rocks. They form by the deposition of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
What are sediments and how are they formed?
200
Basalt is a example of a.......
Extrusive rock

Diamond is the hardest or softest?
Hardest
200
This process happens when magma cools below the Earth's crust.
What is Crystallization?
200
The arrangement of Sedimentary rock in visible layers is called...
Stratification
300
This type of rock form through the transformation of preexisting rock types.
How are Metamorphic rocks formed?
300
Granite is an example of a.....
Intrusive rock

Talc is the softest or hardest
Softest
300
This process makes rocks which have been solidified lava on the Earth's surface expose. Due to uplift, they act upon the destructive power of this process. Then these materials are pushed into the ocean and are broken down into tiny sediments and formed into sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. What is this process called?
What is Heat and Pressure, and Weathering and Erosion?
300
The original rock that acts on by heat and pressure to form a Metamorphic rock.
Parent rock
400
Heat and pressure as well as weathering and erosion.

The common objects for Quartz and Topaz are...
Quartz :Porcelain Tile Topaz :Flint Sandpaper
400
This process happens when all the broken parts/ sediments are held together by an another material, while the other process happens when weight and pressure of water form sedimentary rocks.
What is Compaction and Cementation?
400
The removal of soil materials dissolved into water is called...
Leaching
500
The earth's crust changes and causes new rocks to form and old rocks to change. A mineral comes from something that was never alive. Other minerals were formed from living materials like animals or vegetables.
How rocks and minerals are formed?
500
This is a type of igneous rocks,cools and hardens below the surface of the Earth. While this type of igneous rock cools and hardens above the surface of the earth.
What are Intrusive and Extrusive rocks?
500
The most 10 common minerals and their hardness are...
Talc:1 Gypsum:2 Calcite:3 Fluorite:4 Apatite:5 Feldspar:6 Quartz:7 Topaz:8 Corundum:9 Diamond:10
500
The naturally arising process in which rocks continue to change over long periods of time.
What is the rock cycle?
500
Rocks differ in composition depending the availability and type of mineral present during their formation.
What is composition of rocks and minerals?
