Which type of rock results from melting and cooling of magma?

• Igneous
• Metamorphic
• Sedimentary
• Extrusive

The process by which water, wind, ice, and changes in temperature break down rock into fragments called sediments.

• Deposition
• Erosion

• Igneous Rock

Rock that forms when minerals form from solutions or sediment from older rocks get pressed and cemented together.
