Rocks and Rock Cycle

What type of rocks are formed when magma or lava cools down.

• Sedimentary Rocks

• Metamorphic Rocks

• Igneous Rocks

What type of rocks are formed deep inside the Earth's crust from intense heat and pressure?

• Sedimentary Rocks

• Metamorphic Rocks

• Igneous Rocks

What types of rocks are formed after weathering and over time they cement together to form into one rock?

• Sedimentary Rocks

• Metamorphic Rocks

• Igneous Rocks

Rocks can be mixtures.

• True
• False

All three types of rocks (igneous, sedimnetary and metamorphic) are classified by:

• How they formed.
• Mineral Composition
• Texture

There is only one pathway through the rock cycle.

• True
• False

Rocks are always changing.

• True
• False

The series of a rock changing from one type of another is called...

• The Rock Cycle
• The Carbon Cycle
• The Water Cycle
• The Nitrogen Cycle

What are examples of Igneous Rocks?

• They can have fossils in them, have a dusty feel, made up of other types of rocks

• They have rings/layers, made up of sedimentary and igneous rocks through heat and pressure, has crystals.

• They can look glassy or have air bubbles, no visible minerals

What are examples of Metamorphic Rocks?

• They can have fossils in them, have a dusty feel, made up of other types of rocks

• They have rings, made up of sedimentary and igneous rocks through heat and pressure, has crystals.

• They can look glassy or have air bubbles, no visible minerals
