The Rock Cycle Doodle Notes

What are the three main types of rocks in the rock cycle?

• Igneous, Sedimentary, Metamorphic

• Granite, Marble, Shale

• Volcanic, Plutonic, Chemical

• Sandstone, Limestone, Quartzite

How is Igneous rock primarily formed?

• From the deposition of sediments over long periods.

• From the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

• From existing rock subjected to very high heat and pressure.

• Through weathering and erosion of other rocks.

Which process is central to the formation of sedimentary rock?

• Melting and subsequent cooling.

• Subjecting existing rock to extreme heat and pressure.

• Deposition of sediments in layers over long periods.

• Rapid cooling of lava on the Earth's surface.

What conditions are necessary for the formation of Metamorphic rock?

• Cooling of magma or lava.

• Weathering, erosion, and deposition.

• Very high heat and pressure.

• The presence of fossils.
