Rock Cycle
When running water, wind, or ice loosens and carrys away fragments of rock.
Igneous rocks made of lava on top of earth’s surface. They cool rapidly and have small crystals.
Igneous rocks made of magma deep inside earth. They cool very slowly and, therefore, have larger crystals.
A series of processes on Earth’s surface and in the crust and mantle that slowly change rocks from one kind to another.
The mineral grains in these rocks are arranged randomly rather than in parallel bands.
The process by which sediment settles out of the water or the wind carrying it.
The process in which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together.
Where rocks come from.
