SEDIMENTARY ROCKS

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:36:08 UTC

Sedimentary rocks are one of the main three types of rocks. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock.

IGNEOUS ROCKS

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:45:44 UTC

Igneous Rocks is formed as a result of the hardening of lava or magma (molten rocks).

METAMORPHIC ROCKS

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:46:18 UTC

Metamorphic rocks can change due to heat and pressure which its parent rocks could be sedimentary or igneous rocks.

HEAT & PRESSURE

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:53:42 UTC

Is a necessary process for Igneous and Sedimentary rocks to be transformed/morphed into Metapmorphic rocks.

SEDIMENTS

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:54:18 UTC

Sediment is solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location. Sediment can consist of rocks and minerals, as well as the remains of plants and animals.

MAGMA

s1915609 — 2024-09-13 09:55:23 UTC

Molten or partially molten rock from which igneous rocks form. It migrates to the depth or the surface of the Earth as lava.

WEATHERING

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 09:58:41 UTC

Wear away or change the appearance or texture of objects by long exposure to the air

COMPACTION

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 10:05:21 UTC

Compaction is the process where the pressure on buried solid material causes the material to stick together and change to rock.

MELTING

s1915609 — 2024-09-13 10:07:24 UTC

Melting of rocks causes other rock types(Sedimentary and Metamorphic) to turn into Igneous rocks. This process makes magma which forms and cool down to create Igneous rocks.

COOLING

s2401206 — 2024-09-13 10:28:23 UTC

removal of heat, usually resulting in a lower temperature and/or phase change
