2 When all the grains in a rock are large and easy to see, the rock is described as

3 coarse grained.

4 Rock that forms from the cooling of magma below the surface or lava at the surface is called

5 igneous rock.

6 Where does most metamorphic rock form?

7 deep underground

8 To describe a rock’s texture, geologists determine the_____, shape, and pattern of the rock’s grains.

9 size

10 Generally, a rock is made up of a ______of minerals and other materials.

11 mixture

12 Particles of minerals called ____give a rock its texture.

13 grains

14 Igneous rock that cools very quickly when it forms may have a texture that is

15 smooth and shiny with no visible grain.

16 Igneous rock that formed from lava that erupted onto Earth’s surface is called ____.

17 extrusive rock.

18 The most abundant intrusive rock in the continental crust is

19 granite.

20 Igneous rocks that formed beneath Earth’s surface are ____ rocks.

21 intrusive

22 The process by which sediment settles out of the water or wind carrying it is_________________.

23 deposition.

24 A sedimentary rock made up of rock fragments with rounded edges is called _________.

25 conglomerate.

26 The sedimentary rock formed when water deposits tiny particles of clay in very thin, flat layers is called ____.

27 Shale

28 Chalk formed from sediments made of skeletons of microscopic living things in the ocean must be a(n)____.

29 Organic sedimentary rock.

30 The sedimentary rock breccia is made up of rock fragments with _____ edges?.

31 sharp

32 What forms the structure called a coral reef?

33 skeletons of coral animals

34 In volcanic areas, groundwater heated by magma is a source of ____

35 geothermal energy.

36 Tall, cone-shaped mountains in which layers of lava alternate with layers of ash are called _____

37 composite volcanoes.

38 What happens to a coral reef if the sea level rises or if the sea floor sinks?

39 It continues to grow upward.

40 Over time, coral buried by sediments can turn into _______ (a sedimentary rock).

41 Limestone

42 Heat and pressure deep beneath Earth’s surface can change any rock into ________.

43 metamorphic rock.

44 The heat that changes a rock into metamorphic rock comes from ___.

45 the mantle.

46 Geologists classify metamorphic rock according to the arrangement of the ____ that make up the rock.

47 grains

48 The texture of a metamorphic rock that has grains arranged in parallel layers is described as_______.

49 foliated.

50 Metamorphic rocks that are nonfoliated _____________.

51 do not split into layers.
