A | B |
forms when lava cools quickly at Earth's surface | extrusive igneous rock |
forms when sand, mud, and clay cement together | sedimentary rock |
has large crystals from slow cooling | intrusive igneous rock |
called lava when it comes to Earth's surface | magma |
forms when exposed to high pressure and heat | metamorphic rock |
rocks that form when hot melted material cools and becomes solid rock | igneous |
type of rock formed when minerals settle out of solution and harden | chemical sedimentary rock |
rocks near an igneous intrusion are heated and changed by magma | contact metamorphism |
slate, schist, and gniess often form as a result of this | regional metamorphism |
transformations from one type of rock to another type is | the rock cycle |
Conglomerate and sandstone are examples of | clastic sedimentary rock |
In Bowen's reaction series, the silicate mineral that forms at the lowest temperature is | quartz |
a resource most likely to be obtained from igneous rock is | iron |
the minerals of Bowen's reaction series are mainly composed of this and oxygen atoms linked together by common elements | silicon |
materials obtained from sedimentary rocks | ceramic materials & fiberglass |
granite, gabbro, basalt, obsidian, pumice | types of igneous rocks |
conglomerate, sandstone, shale, limestone | types of sedimentary rocks |
gneiss, marble, quartzite | types of metamorphic rocks |
