• Magma

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

• Sedimentary

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

Molten rock below Earth's surface.

• magma

• sediment

• fossil

• foliation

A trace or the remains of a once living thing from long ago.

• foliation

• magma

• intrusive igneous rocks

• fossil

Natural processes that for, change, break down, and re-form rocks.

• fossils

• foliation

• rock cycle

• compaction

A rock is

• soil that is packed together

• made of sticky soil

• a living material that comes from earth

• a hard, solid part of the earth

Where would you most likely find this type of rock?

• very deep in the ground

• on the surface of Earth

• on the side of a volcano

• in a field of cooled lava

Which BEST describes the rock cycle?

• New rocks form from older rocks.
• Lunar rocks change into terrestrial rocks.
• Rocks in the ocean become rocks on land.
• Layers of rock are broken by faults.

How are sedimentary rocks, such as shale and sandstone, formed?

• Particles are changed into liquids.
• Particles are compressed into layers.
• Particles are melted together by magma.
• Particles are heated by the Sun.

The hardened remains of a living thing that died long ago.

• fossil

• extinct

• endangered

• minerals
