How are rocks classified?

• Based on the way they are formed

• Based on their colors

• Based on their temperature

• Based on their size

Mark the description of IGNEOUS ROCKS

• Tiny fragments of rocks. Great pressure transform these rocks. Wind or water flow remove soil and rock from the surface of the planet and transport them to other locations.

• They come from volcanoes. When lava, gases and ash escape to the surface, they get cold and solidify.

• They are formed under the surface of the earth, where heat and pressure are very intense. Those rocks do not melt. The minerals in those rocks change chemically and form the strong rocks, which can have different colours.
