1 All igneous rocks are formed from liquid rock known as __________? Magma

2 What property is used to classify land- derived sedimentary rocks? Grain or particle size

3 Slate is formed from the low grade metamorphism of ____________? Shale

4 Igneous rocks that cool on Earth’s surface are called __________? Extrusive

5 Intrusive igneous rocks have a ______ grained texture. Coarse

6 Igneous rocks with gas pockets are said to have a __________ texture. Vesicular

7 This metamorphic rock forms from limestone. Marble

8 Igneous rocks that are dark in color, high in density and rich in Fe and Mg are said to have a __________ composition. Mafic

9 What is Contact Metamorphism? Heat

10 An igneous rock with a glassy texture would mean that the rock cooled __________ Earth’s surface. Above

11 The slower magma cools, the ________ the crystals. Larger

12 Igneous rocks that are light in color, lower in density and rich in Al and Si are said to have a __________ composition. Felsic

13 A stream slows to a velocity of 2cm/s. Which type of sedimentary rock would form from deposition occurring at this location? Sandstone

14 This metamorphic rock forms from contact metamorphism only. Hornfels

15 The sedimentary rock that forms from clay sediments is called: Shale

16 Banding would identify which metamorphic rock? Gneiss

17 Only sedimentary rocks may contain this important clue to past life on Earth: Fossils

18 Marble bubbles with acid because it is composed of the mineral ___________? Calcite

19 Letter B is the symbol for which sedimentary rock? Limestone

20 This important sedimentary rock is formed from compacted plant remains. Coal

21 What two processes form metamorphic rocks? Heat and Pressure
