I WONDER - How Many Types Of Rocks Are There?

The video tutorial explains the three main types of rocks found on Earth: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. It discusses how the formation process determines the type of rock.

What are the three main types of rocks found on Earth?

• Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic

• Granite, Basalt, and Limestone

• Sandstone, Shale, and Slate

• Quartz, Feldspar, and Mica

Which type of rock is formed from cooled magma or lava?

• Sedimentary

• Fossilized

• Igneous

• Metamorphic

How is a metamorphic rock formed?

• By cooling of magma

• By accumulation of sediments

• By transformation under heat and pressure

• By crystallization of minerals

Which type of rock is typically formed from layers of sediment?

• Volcanic

• Sedimentary

• Metamorphic

• Igneous

What determines the type of rock?

• The color of the rock

• The minerals present in the rock

• The process of its formation

• The location where it is found
