Rocks are made up of these.
What are minerals?
200
The series of processes on which rock forms, changes from one type to another, is destroyed, and forms again by geological processes.
What is the rock cycle?
200
The kind of texture igneous has when magma cools slowly, like with a granite rock.
What is coarse-grained or bumpy?
200
You can see these in sedimentary rocks
What are layers?
200
Metamorphic rocks are made by applying heat and this.
What is pressure?

The kind of texture igneous rock has when magma cools rapidly like with an obsidian rock.
What is fine-grained or smooth?
300
It takes thousands of years for this to make sedimentary rocks
What is the Earth?
300
Metamorphic rocks can be made of this rock which is made from heat.
What is an igneous rock?
300
The size, shape, and position of grains that make up a rock.
What is texture?
400
This process forms sediment.

Igneous rocks are constantly being formed by this.
What is a volcano?
400
One thing sedimentary rocks can be made of.
What are plants, animals, shells, etc.?
400
Metamorphic rock can be made of this rock which is made from heat and pressure.
What is a sedimentary rock?
400
The process by which sediment is removed from its source.
What is erosion?
500
The process by which sediment is dropped and comes to rest.
What is deposition?
500
The kind of rock formed when lava cools on earth's surface.

500
You can find these in sedimentary rocks
