Rock Cycle Review

The rock cycle begins

• with metamorphic rock

• with igneous rock

• with sedimentary rock

• anywhere in the cycle

Heat and pressure create what kind of rock?

• Sedimentary

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Magma

Melting rocks and then cooling creates

• igneous rock

• sediment

• metamorphic rock

• sedimentary rock

Compacting and cementing create what kind of rock

• Igneous

• Sedimentary

• Metamorphic

• Sediment

What type of rock is cooled lava?

• Igenous

• Sediment

• Sedimentary

• Metamorphic

Weathering means

• breaking rocks down into sediment

• melting

• cooling

• moving sediment from one place to another

Weathering creates

• sediment

• igneous rock

• metamorphic rock

• sedimentary rock

To become an igneous rock, it must first

• cool

• melt

• turn into sediment

• get compacted and cemented

Erosion means

• breaking rocks down into bits and pieces

• melting

• cooling

• moving bits and pieces of rocks from one place to another

What processes create and move sediment?

• Weathering and erosion

• compacting and cementing

• Melting and cooling
