Magma cools becomes Igneous Rock,then Erosion, then Sedimentary Rock
cementation
Limestone
deep underground
C. The heat of the mantle
A. smooth and shiny with no visible grain
Igneous Rock
metamorphic rocks
foliated
You need the heat from the mantle and pressure from plate tectonics deep underground.
Erosion
Sedimentary Rock
C. Smelting
Limestone is formed in shallow warm ocean water. One time due to continental drift the United States was covered with ocean water and near the equator.
MELTING
Bonus 40 points: It is caused by plate tectonics or the crashing of plates
extrusive
B. Mixtureof minerals and other materials
Fish dies and is buried by sediment on the bottom of a river or lake.
Forms Igneous Rock
extrusive rock
1. Erosion - Sedimentary Rock - Heat and Pressure - metamorphic rock
2. Heat and Pressure
Skeletons of coral animals
No more heat to make metamorphic rocks and no more magma to create Igneous rocks.
No
Bonus: Sedimentary rock can melt and turn to magma
