Back to MenuRocks are a combination of minerals and other materials (organic / inorganic matter)What are Sediments?

Texture is the size, shape, or pattern of the grains that make up a rock.Back to MenuWhat are the 3 ways Igneous rocks are classified?

Back to MenuFine grained (difficult to see) and Coarse grained (easy to see)Explain Weathering and Erosion.DAILY DOUBLE!

How would you describe the Texture of each rock shown below?7Igneous rocks are described by where they form. What are the two ways?Give 3 ways that a rock changes through Metamorphosis.List the steps of Sedimentary rock formation in the correct order.

Lava is molten material that reaches the surface.Magma is molten material below the surface.Back to MenuWhat are the types of Texture an Igneous rock can have?Are Metamorphic rocks likely to contain fossils? Explain.29What are the 3 types of Sedimentary rocks?

Intrusive rocks form inside Earth. Extrusive rocks form on Earths surface.Back to MenuWhat can you determine about the chemical composition of these two igneous rocks?Metamorphic rocks can be classified in two ways. Describe what they are.What are the major types of weathering? Give 3 examples of each type.

No. Metamorphic rocks go through extreme heat and pressure, which would destroy any fossils present. Sedimentary rocks are the only type that will contain fossils.

Metamorphic rocks can be either Foliated (grains arranged in layers) or Non-Foliated (grains arranged randomly).Back to MenuFinal JeopardySediments are pieces of rock, mineral, or organic matter.

Back to Menu

Weathering is the breaking down of material into sediment. Erosion is the carrying away of sediment by wind or water.Back to Menu

Weathering Erosion Deposition Compaction CementationBack to Menu

Clastic are rock fragments squeezed together.Organic contain remains of plants and animals.Chemical form when dissolved minerals crystallizeBack to Menu

Mechanical Weathering includes Abrasion, freeze/thaw, plants, and animal activity.Chemical Weathering includes Acid rain, water, oxygen, & carbon dioxide.
