• heat and pressure

• compaction and cementation

• freezing and melting

• weathering and erosion

after changing into sediment the igneous rock is then transformed into sedimentary rock by

• weathering and erosion

• heat and pressure

• cementation and compaction

• melting and cooling

Sedimentary rock transforms into metamorphic rock by

• cementation and compaction

• weathering and erosion

• melting and cooling

• heat and pressure

What are the three basic types of rocks

• lava, ocean, fire

• sedimentary, igneous, metamorphic

• evaporation, condensation, sublimation

• basalt, granite, uranium

Sedimentary rock transforms to igneous rock by

• heat and pressure

• melting and cooling

• evaporation and condensation

• it is not possible

After transforming to sediment, the metamorphic rock transforms to sedimentary rock by

• cementation and compaction

• freezing

• heat and pressure

• it has to be igneous first

what type of rock is formed when molten magma or lava solidifies

• igneous rock

• sedimentary rock

• basalt

• metamorphic rock

What is an igneous rock or sedimentary rock that has been changed by extreme pressure and heat?

• limestone

• granite

• conglomerate

• metamorphic

Rocks that come out of volcanoes form the greater part of earths crust. these rocks are

• igneous

• minerals

• sediments

• metamorphic

When sedimentary rock is buried underneath a surface it may turn into another rock called

• metamorphic rock

• igneous rock

• it will stay the same

• granite
