This rock was formed when magma cooled very slowly inside the Earth. What specific type of rock is it?

• Intrusive Igneous Rock

• Extrusive Igneous Rock

• Foliated Metamorphic Rock

• Clastic Sedimentary Rock

This rock formed when lava cooled very quickly on Earth's surface. What specific type of rock is it?

• Extrusive Igneous Rock

• Intrusive Igneous Rock

• Non-Foliated Metamorphic Rock

• Biochemical Sedimentary 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.
