Rock Types
- Igneous Rock---Intrusive/Extrusive
 |
| Extrusive |
 |
| Intrusive |
Extrusive - The rock come out with magma and it cools down fast so the crystal will not show clearly.
Clastic - Clastic rocks are made up of particles
Crystalline - Crystalline made up of clearly crystal
- Sedimentary Rocks---Clastic/Crystalline/Bioclastic
 |
| Clastic |
 |
| Crystalline |
 |
| Bioclastic |
Crystalline - Crystalline made up of clearly crystal
Bioclastic - Bioclastic is made up of arranged animals
- Metamorphic Rocks---Foliated/Non-Foliated
 |
| Foliated |
 |
| Non-Foliated |
Foliated - The rocks have parallel bands.
Non-Foliated - The rocks that do not have parallel bands.
Vocabulary
Metamorphic rock -Metamorphic rocks are sedimentary or igneous rocks that changed by heat and pressure.
Magma/Lava - Melted rock inside the mountain. Lava is when the melted rock is indis/ Magma is when the rock come out.
Solidification - To make it solid
Igneous rock - Made up by cooling magma
Weathering - Weather(Rain/Sun/Wind)
Erosion - When water and wind take away things on the surface of the rock
Sediment - Sand and mud
Compaction - Push it together
Cementation - Grew together over time
Sedimentary rock - Rock that formed through the solidification
Summary
Sedimentary rock heat and pressure to metamorphic rock.
Metamorphic rock melting into magma.
Magma cooling down and turns into Igneous rock.
Igneous rock weathering and deposition into sediment.
Sediment change into sedimentary rock by compaction and cementation.
The sedimentary rock will heat and pressure into metamorphic rock.
Igneous rock and Sedimentary rock can both change into Metamorphic rock by heat and pressure
