| If grains of an igneous rock are large, what would this indicate about the formation of the rock? | It cooled slowly and stayed hot for a long time |
| List in order from beginning to end the 4 steps involved in the formation of a sedimentary rock. | erosion,deposition, compaction, cementation |
| Compare and contrast Intrusive and extrusive rock. | Intrusive is formed under ground by magma and extrusive is formed above ground by lava. They both form from molten rock and are both Igneous rocks |
| The size of grains in an igneous rock are determined by... | rate of cooling |
| Coal is a sedimentary rock made up of organic matter that has become solid. Unlike limestone, coal is made up of: | plant remains |
| What type of rock is gneiss | metamorphic |
| You can group igneous rocks by the sizes of grains in them. Coarse grained rocks are___ and fine grained rocks are___. | intrusive;extrusive |
| Rocks that come from volcanos form the greater part of earth's crust. These rocks are: | Igneous rock |
| From deep within the earth molten magma pushes up, heating rocks that surround it. this process turns igneous and sedimentary rocks into: | metamorphic rocks |
