Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes hence causing these processes to create a rock cycle. ]]> 2020-11-29 04:17:41 UTC https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/967761574 abakkassmalika https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/967770221 2020-11-29 04:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/967770221 abakkassmalika https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/967770988 2020-11-29 04:28:28 UTC https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/967770988 Minerals: The Building Blocks of Rocks abakkassmalika https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/968869494 A mineral is homogenous, naturally occurring substance formed through geological processes that has a characteristic chemical composition, a highly ordered atomic structure and specific physical properties.

What are Rocks?
A rock is a naturally occurring aggregate of minerals and/or other rock fragments. It is categorized by the minerals included, its chemical composition and the way in which it is formed.

What are 3 major types of rocks?
Igneous – formed from molten magma 
Sedimentary – formed from sediment (soil, sand)
Metamorphic – formed by applying heat and pressure to other existing rocks

What does the texture of rocks refer to?
Texture refers to the physical appearance or character of a rock, such as grain size, shape, and arrangement.
Ex: Igneous rocks that crystallize slowly beneath the Earth's surface, typically have visible individual minerals. Extrusive igneous rocks tend to cool much more rapidly, and the minerals grow quicker and can not get as large. Thus, they have a sugary or fine grained texture.

•Igneous rocks form as a result of volcanic activity, hot spots, and melting that occurs in the mantle.

This rocks are likely to form in areas such as: Deltas, Beaches, Rivers
Glaciers, Sand dunes, Shallow seas, Deep oceans.

•Lava intrusions can provide heat that causes metamorphic rocks to form.  ]]> 2020-11-29 21:40:57 UTC https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/969377659 Igneous Rocks - Examples abakkassmalika https://padlet.com/abakkassmalika/cuf6fmpiygh6xsvu/wish/969401631 •The most common types of igneous rocks include:
