What is the two causes of metamorphic rock
100
a sedimentary rock
What is Shale, conglomerate, sandstone, halite, limestone, coal
100
on the outside of the earth, cools quickly, and has small crystals.
What is intrusive
100
when rocks break down into smaller pieces by, wind, water, and ice.
What is weathering
100
a mixure of non-living things such sand grains, smaller rocks & minerals, organic material, and living things.
What is soil
200
deep under the earths crust
What is where metamorphic rocks are formed
200
layers of sediment built up over millions of years
What is sedimentation
200
melted rock WITHIN the earth
What is magma
200
the movements of sediments by wind, water, and ice
What is erosion
200
soil forms as distinct boundries known as:
What is soil horizions
300
where plates carrying landmasses collide
What is regional
300
the main processes of the formation of sedimentary rock
What is weathering, erosion, deposition
300
melted rock THAT REACHES THE EARTHS SURFACE
What is lava
300
the dropping of sediment to a new location
What is deposition
300
layers of soil/ horizons
What is soil profile
400
occurs when magma rises through Earth's crust and touches existing rock
What is contact metamorphism
400
weathering of debris
What is clastic sedimentary rock
400
how a mineral breaks
What is cleavage
400
layers of sediment built up over millions of years
What is sedimentation
400
a layer of solid rock that has not been weathered
What is bedrock
500
foliated and nonfoliated
What is groups of metamorphic rocks
500
remains of plants and animals
What is organic sedimentary rocks
500
how a mineral reflects light
What is luster
500
the process where sediments compact under pressure, squeeze out liquids, and become solid rock
What is lithofication
500
organic layer- contails dead and decaying plant material
What is humus
