Type of rocks

What must happen to a metamorphic rock before it becomes a sedimentary rock rock?

• It must be broken down into sediment

• It must be melted into magma

• Its minerals must dissolve in water

• It must be exposed to high temperature and pressure

What are the three types of Rocks?

• Sedimentary, Igneous, Metamorphic
• Sedimentary, Igneous, Marble
• Sandstone, Lava, Metamorphisis
• Sediment, Lava, Heat and Pressure

This type of rock is formed when you cool melted rock.

• Sedimentary
• Igneous
• Metamorphic
• Lava Rock

This type of rock is MOST likely to contain fossils.

• Sedimentary
• Igneous
• Metamorphic
• Fossil Rock

This rock formed when bits of other rocks became pressed into a solid. What type of rock is it?

• Sedimentary Rock
• Metamorphic Rock
• Igneous Rock

What process is used to form sedimentary rocks?

• Lava cools and hardens to form a rock.
• Weathering, Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation
• Extreme heat and pressure from inside the Earth turn rocks into new rocks.
• Magma trapped under the Earth's surface cools and solidifies.
