a) A series of processes on Earth’s surface and in the crust and mantle that slowly change rocks from one kind to another.

b) Metamorphic rocks that have their grains arranged in parallel layers or bands.

c) The process in which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together.

d) The process in which sediments are pressed together.

b) A series of processes on Earth’s surface and in the crust and mantle that slowly change rocks from one kind to another.

c) The mineral grains in these rocks are arranged randomly rather than in parallel bands.

d) Sedimentary rocks which are made from the remains of plants or animals.

a) Sedimentary rocks which are made when fragments from broken rocks are squeezed together.

c) Rocks formed from the cooling of magma or lava.

d) Sedimentary rocks which are made from the remains of plants or animals.
