What best describes Magmatic Differentiation?

• The formation of metamorphic rocks from existing rocks
• The process of weathering and erosion on rocks
• The process of converting sediment into sedimentary rock
• The process explaining how different igneous rocks can form from single magma melts

Which of the following best describes Crystallization?

• The process where atoms or molecules arrange into a defined repeating pattern known as a crystal lattice

• The process of dissolving a solid in a liquid
• The process of converting a solid into a liquid
• The separation of a mixture into its components

How do igneous rocks form?

• Igneous rocks are formed by erosion
• Igneous rocks are created by plant growth
• Igneous rocks are a result of volcanic ash settling
• When magma cools and solidifies either above or below Earth's surface

In magmatic differentiation, why do the crystals that have solidified within the magma tend to sink?

• Crystals are lighter than the surrounding liquid magma.
• Crystals are magnetic and repel from the magma.
• Crystals are attracted to the surface tension of the magma.
• Crystals have a higher density than the surrounding liquid magma.
