The solid outer layer of the earth, between about 8km and 40km thick.

This type of weathering happens when plants and animals break up rocks

biological

This happens when another substance sticks sediments together

cementation

This type of weathering happens when acid rain falls onto rocks and reacts with them

chemical

https://www.passmyexams.co.uk/GCSE/physics/what-is-weathering.html

This happens when the weight of sediments above squashes together the sediments below

compaction

When sediments stop moving and settle in one place

deposition

When rocks are broken down and transported away

erosion

A kind of physical weathering where water gets into cracks, turns to ice and expands, making the crack bigger

freeze thaw

This happens when temperature changes, wind or waves break up rocks.

Physical weathering

The type of rock made when sediments are compacted or cemented into new rocks.

This type of rock is made up of grains so is Sedimentary.

The combination of grains and layers is typical of this type of rock.

Small pieces of rock produced by weathering.

grains

A process that breaks up all types of rock into smaller pieces,.

weathering

The type of rock formed when liquid rock cools and freezes.

Note this has cooled slowly below the earth so the crystals have had time to grow so the interlocking crystals are larger than those found in volcanic rocks that crystallise quickly on the earth's surface.

This rock is called granite.

igneous

https://www.passmyexams.co.uk/GCSE/physics/rock-process-igneous-rocks.html

Liquid rock below the ground. (This will crystallise to form extrusive igneous rocks with larger crystals)

Magma

The type of rock formed when heat or pressure change an existing rock.

This rock has crystals and layers so is metamorphic

Metamorphic
