Row 1, Col 1 What are the three types of rocks? Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic

1,2 What kind of rock is Shale made of? Sedimentary

1,3 Metamorphic rock is formed how? Sedimentary or Igneous rock buried in the ground and forms a metamorphic rock from heat and pressure.

1,4 How is Sedimentary rock formed? Rocks that formed by little sediments carried away by weathering such as wind, water, or ice.

2,1 What are a few examples of Sedimentary rock? Conglomerate, sandstone, and limestone

2,2 What are some examples of Metamorphic rock? Gneiss, Granite, Marble, Slate

2,3 What does Igneous rock look like? Shiny, smooth, dark colored, light colored

2,4 What does Sedimentary rock feel like? Rough, bumpy, sandy, scratchy

3,1 What are the three layers of Earth? mantle, crust, and core

3,2 What order are the layers of Earth starting from the outside? Crust, mantle, and core

3,3 How do you get from Sedimentary to Metamorphic? Broken up little sediments carried away by weathering and changed into Metamorphic rock by heat in pressure

3,4 How do you get from Metamorphic rock to Igneous rock? When the heat and pressure do not melt a Metamorphic rock it changes into an Igneous

4,1 What are some of the hardest types rocks? Quartz, Topaz, and Diamond

4,2 What are some of the softest types rocks? Talc, Gypsum, and Calcite

4,3 What are some characteristics of Igneous rock? Smooth, usually dark colored, fine textured

4,4 What are some characteristics of Metamorphic rock? Strong, often shiny, sometimes contains brilliant colors

5,1 How is Metamorphic rock formed? They are heated by high temperatures, and under pressure from rocks above them

5,2 How is Igneous rock formed? When magma rises, but cools and hardens before it reaches the surface, it becomes Igneous rock

5,3 What is it called when you describe a rock? Property

5,4 What are the little broken up minerals that make Sedimentary Rock? sediments
