Rock Cycle & Plate Tectonics

What are the different types of rocks?

• Magma, Sediments, Metamorphic

• Continental, Oceanic, Subduction

• Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sedimentary

• Magma, Weathering, Erosion

Sediment comes from?

• Weathering and Erosion

• Cementation and Compaction

• Melting and Cooling

• Heat and Pressure

Igneous rocks are the only rocks created by

• Magma/Lava MELTING

• Magma/Lava COOLING

• Compaction and Cementation

• Weathering and Erosion

Heat and Pressure creates

• Sedimentary Rock

• Metamorphic Rock

• Igneous Rock

• Crystalization

When parts of the crust are being pulled down into the earth

• Cooling and Solidification

• Tsunami Zone

• Divergent Boundary

• Subduction Zone

how does igneous rocks become sediment?

• Weathering and Erosion

• Cooling

• Melting

• Compaction and Cementation

sediment becomes sedimentary rock through:

• Compaction and Cementation

• Melting

• Cooling

• Heat and Pressure

sedimentary rock becomes metamorphic through

• Cooling

• Weathering and Erosion

• Heat and Pressure

• Melting

metamorphic rock becomes magma by:

• Heat and Pressure

• Cementation and Compaction

• Cooling

• Melting (Extreme heat)

magma becomes igneous rock through:

• Cooling and Solidification

• Melting and then heat and Pressure

• Heat and Pressure

• Weathering and Erosion
