Slower MagmaMakes larger mineral crystals in the rock. (35)
Magma with lots of Silicaare thick and produce light colored igneous rocks. (36)
Magma with low amounts of SilicaAre fluid and produce dark colored igneous rocks. (36)
WeatheringWearing away of Breaking of rock due to water, wind, ice, and gravity. (37)
