It forms near magma.

Question 8

Where does regional metamorphism form?

Answer 8

It is formed deeper in the earth.

Question 9

What is an extrusive igneous rock?

Answer 9

It is when magma comes out like lava and cools on the surface.

Question 10

What is an intrusive igneous rock?

Answer 10

It is when magma cools off beneath the surface.

Question 11

What are the properties of intrusive rock?

Answer 11

It cools slowly, course-grained, below surface large, visible, and cycles.

What is an example of intrusive rock?

Answer 12

Granite.

Question 13

What are the properties of extrusive rock?

Answer 13

cools quickly, fine-grained, on the surface, small or no crystals.

Question 14

What do all igneous rock begin as?

Answer 14

They begin as magma.

Question 15

Why do igneous rocks have no fossils?

Answer 15

Because they would have melted in the magma.

Question 16

What is an example of extrusive rocks?

Answer 16

Basalt pumice obsidian.

Question 17

What clues would help you determine the type of igneous rock is where it was formed?

Answer 17

Weather is coarse or fine-grained as well as the type of rock.

Question 18

How is sand formed?

Answer 18

Formed by the result of weathering of all three rock types.

Question 19

What is weathering?

Answer 19

It is wind, water, ice, sunlight, and gravity.

Question 20

What does weathering do to rocks?

Answer 20

It causes sediment.

Question 21

What does erosion do?

Answer 21

It causes sediments.

Question 22

What is deposition do?

Answer 22

It is where sediments finally land.

Question 23

What turns sediments into sedimentary rock?

Answer 23

It compaction and cementation.

Question 24

What is found in sedimentary rocks?

Answer 24

fossils.

Question 25

What is an example of sedimentary rocks?

Answer 25

Limestone.

Question 26

What is always happening to rocks?

Answer 26

rocks are always being recycled.

Question 27

What is mechanical weathering?

Answer 27

It is the process that breaks rocks apart without changing their chemical composition.

Question 28

What are examples of mechanical weathering?

Answer 28

It is freezing water, deep rocks in the earth under pressure, plants making cracks in cement, water wearing down rocks.

Question 29

What are chemical waves?

Answer 29

It is water causes chemical weathering water/oxygen combines with iron to cause rust.

Question 30

What are the sand colors?

Answer 30

orange, grey, violet, red. black, green, dark brown, pink, white, and tan.

Question 31

What are some of the beach materials?

Answer 31

glass, shale, shells, volcanic minerals, and sand.

Question 32

where are igneous rocks formed?

Answer 32

They are formed on volcanic surfaces or inside the crust.

Question 33

What prosses create igneous rocks?

Answer 33

cooling of magma.

Question 34

Where are sedimentary rocks formed?

Answer 34

They are formed near water.

Question 35

What prosses create sedimentary rocks?

Answer 35

It is formed by compaction.

Question 36

Where are metamorphic rocks formed?

Answer 36

It is formed on mountain ranges and deep in the earth.

Question 37

What prosses create metamorphic rocks?

Answer 37

Heat and pressure from sedimentary rocks create metamorphic rocks.

Question 38

What was the first part of the starburst lab?

Answer 38

Pulling it apart and making it sediments.

Question 39

What was the second part of the starburst lab?

Answer 39

Applying heat and pressure makes it metamorphic rocks.

Question 40

What was the third step in the starburst lab?

Answer 40

The third step was to heat for thirty seconds, making it into an igneous rock.

Question 41

What is magma?

Answer 41

Magma is found beneath the surface of the Earth.
