Gappa Rocks Chp 3

        Help!  

Question
Answer
type of rock formed by lava cooling   igneous  
🗑
type of rock formed by small pieces of rock that are compacted and cemented together   sedimentary  
🗑
Heat and pressure deep beneath Earth’s surface can change any rock into this type of rock   metamorphic  
🗑
this process is responsible for uplifting and subducting large rock formations which exposes them to different energy sources that can change them into different types of rcoks   plate motion  
🗑
Rocks that form underground closer to the mantle where there is a lot of heat and pressure   metamorphic rocks  
🗑
Order in which sedimentary rocks form   weathring, erosion, compaction, cementation  
🗑
The three main types of rocks are...   igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic  
🗑
what is the energy source that causes melting   Earth's interior  
🗑
process in which particles of sediment are "glued" together   cementation  
🗑
process in which particles of sediment are pressed together   compaction  
🗑
if magma cools beneath Earth's surface, it will harden into an igneous rock (slowly or quickly)   slowly  
🗑
if magma cools above Earth's surface, it will harden into an igneous rock (slowly or quickly)   quickly  
🗑
process in which water and wind break down rocks into small pieces of sediment   weathering  
🗑
process in which water and wind move sediment to a different location   erosion  
🗑
