Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

Sedimentary rocks are often deposited in layers, and frequently contain fossils. ]]> 2018-01-26 17:08:43 UTC https://padlet.com/3033861/kbmtmcu3kq8f/wish/225144553 3033861 https://padlet.com/3033861/kbmtmcu3kq8f/wish/225144599 A metamorphic rock is a type of rock which has been changed by extreme heat and pressure. Its name is from 'morph' (meaning form), and 'meta' (meaningchange). The original rock gets heated (temperatures greater than 150 to 200 °C) and pressured (1500 bars). This causes profound physical and/or chemical change.]]> 2018-01-26 17:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/3033861/kbmtmcu3kq8f/wish/225144599 3033861 https://padlet.com/3033861/kbmtmcu3kq8f/wish/225144687 In geology and related fields, a stratum (plural: strata) is a layer of sedimentary rock or soil, or igneous rock that were formed at the earth's surface, with internally consistent characteristics that distinguish it from other layers.]]> 2018-01-26 17:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/3033861/kbmtmcu3kq8f/wish/225144687
