What are the 3 classes of rocks?

1

Follow the arrow from sedimentary to metamorphic rock. What process is necessary to change a sedimentary to a metamorphic rock?

Deposition, compaction and cementation

Heat and/or pressure

Melting to magma, then solidification

Weathering and erosion

1

Follow the arrow from sediments to sedimentary rock. How do sediments become sedimentary rock?

Deposition, compaction and cementation

Heat and/or pressure

Melting to magma, then solidification

Weathering and erosion

1

How does igneous rock become metamorphic rock?

Deposition, compaction and cementation

Heat and/or pressure

Melting to magma, then solidification

Weathering and erosion

1

How does metamorphic rock become an igneous rock?

Deposition, compaction and cementation

Heat and/or pressure

Melting to magma, then solidification

Weathering and erosion

1

How are sediments formed?

Deposition, compaction and cementation

Heat and/or pressure

Melting to magma, then solidification

Weathering and erosion

How is magma formed?

From compaction and cementation

From deposition

From melting rock

From Weathering and erosion

1

How does magma become igneous rock?

From compaction and cementation

From melting

From solidification

From Weathering and erosion

Which process cannot happen?

Igneous rock ----> heat and or pressure ---> metamorphic rock

Metamorphic rock ---> melting ----> solidification -----> igneous rock

Sedimentary rock ----> melting ----> solidification -----> metamorphic rock
