100
process in which new rock is formed from old rock
What is the rock cycle?
100
layers found in sedimentary rock
What is strata?
100
rock that cools at the surface of the Earth
What is extrusive?
100
Rock in which minerals are arranged in planes or bands.
What is foliated?
100
This happens to minerals when temperature and pressure change
What is change?
200
Process in which sediment is removed from its source
What is erosion?
200
This type of sedimentary rock is made when a solution dissolves and leaves the mineral behind.
What is a chemical sedimentary rock?
200
You can find igneous rocks around these land formation
What are volcanoes?
200
The process in which rock changes shape
What is deformation?
200
the quality of a rock based on size and shape
What is texture?
300
When temperature increases, pressure decreases, or when a rock changes its composition, this substance forms.
What is magma?
300
The three categories of sedimentary rock
What is clastic, chemical, and organic?
300
Scientists call rock that is formed when magma cools below the Earth's surface this..
What is intrusive igneous rock?
300
This has to increase for metamorphism to occur
What is heat and pressure?
300
Rocks are classified by these two things
What is texture and composition?
400
process when sediments is dropped and comes to rest
What is deposition?
400
The process in which layers in sedimentary rock are formed
What is stratification?
400
When magma cools quickly it has this kind of texture.
What is coarse grained?
400
Process other than heat that causes metamorphism
What is pressure?
400
The chemical make up of a rock
What is composition?
500
This forms during the rock cycle when magma cools
What is igneous rock?
500
The four forces that shape the Earth
What is weathering, erosion, deposition, and uplift?
500
Rock that is formed when magma cools on the Earth's surface
What is extrusive igneous rock?
500
Rock in which mineral grains are not aligned in planes or bands
What is nonfoliated?
500
A naturally occurring solid mixture of crystals of one or more mineral
What is a rock?
