Rock Types and Cycle

What processes are associated with creating sedimentary rocks?

• Weathering and erosion

• heat and pressure

• deposition

• Cooling and hardening

• Compaction and cementation

What process(es) creates Igneous Rock?

• Weathering and erosion

• cool and harden

• compaction

• cementation

What process creates Metamorphic rock?

• weathering and erosion

• cementation and compaction

• cool and harden

• heat and pressure

Foliated and non-foliated describe which rock type

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Sedimentary

What is associated with intrusive igneous rocks?

• fine grained

• coarse grained

• slow cooling

• rapid cooling

What is associated with extrusive igneous rocks?

• fine grained

• coarse grained

• slow cooling

• rapid cooling

Sedimentary rocks are ________________

• formed from magma that cools underground

• a type of rock that has foliated lines

• increases in temperature and pressure

• loose materials become pressed or cemented together

What rock type forms when magma or lava cools?

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Sedimentary

Which rock type forms when heat and pressure change a rock?

• igneous

• metamorphic

• sedimentary

The process in which sediments are "glued" together:

• compaction

• cementation

• weathering

• erosion
