|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basaltic | igneous rocks, are dense and dark-colored
🗑
|
||||
| Lava | Magma when it has reached Earth's surface
🗑
|
||||
| Cementation | Occurs when minerals such as quartz, calcite, and hematite are deposited between the pieces of sediment
🗑
|
||||
| Metamorphic Rock | Rocks that have changed becuase of changes in temperature and pressure or the presence of hot, watery fluids
🗑
|
||||
| Compaction | Pressure from the upper layers pushes down on the lower layers, if sediments are small, they can stick together and form solid rock
🗑
|
||||
| Nonfoliated | Mineral grains grow and rearrange, but do not form layers
🗑
|
||||
| Extrusive | igneous rocks that are formed as lava cools on the surface of the Earth
🗑
|
||||
| Rock | mixture of rock fragments, volcanic glass, organic matter, or other natural materials
🗑
|
||||
| Foliated | Mineral grains line up in parallel layers
🗑
|
||||
| Rock Cycle | Illistrates the processes that create and change rocks
🗑
|
||||
| Granatic | igneous rocks, are light-colored rocks of lower density than basaltic rocks
🗑
|
||||
| Sediment | Loose materials such as rock fragments, mineral grains, and bits of shell that have been moved by wind, water, ice, or gravity
🗑
|
||||
| Igneous Rock | When hot magma cools and hardens
🗑
|
||||
| Sedimentary Rock | Forms when sediments are pressed and cemented together, or when minerals form from solutions
🗑
|
||||
| Intrusive | Rocks that form from magma below the surface
🗑
