Lesson the Rock Cycle

Look at the picture. What is happening at process E to make igneous rock? (in the blue boxes)

• cooling

• heat and pressure

• melting

• erosion

Formed by compacting & cementing of sediments

• Sedimentary rock

• Metamorphic rock

• Extrusive Igneous

• Intrusive Igneous

Formed by weathering and then erosion

• magma

• sediments

• sedimentary rock

• intrusive igneous
