SHOW what you KNOW the rock cycle 1. Iden�fy the type of rock associated with the picture. Name: Date: 2. During which process does layer upon layer of sediment build up, exer�ng pressure on the layers below? a. erosion b. compac�on c. conglomerate d. weathering 3. Which of the following is an igneous rock? a. gneiss b. shale c. limestone d. pumice 4. Metamorphic rock transforms to sediment by _____? a. mel�ng and cooling b. cementa�on and compac�on c. weathering and erosion d. heat and pressure A: 5. Heat and _______________ can change sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock. 6. Igneous rocks form from the ________________ of magma or lava. 7. ____________ is the process which causes magma to form. B: 8. Why are some igneous rocks coarse and others are smooth? heat & pressure 9. Which type of rock o�en contains fossils and how do you think this occurs? C: SHOW what you KNOW the rock cycle 1.

Igneous rocks form from the ________________ of magma or lava. mel�ng 7. ____________ is the process which causes magma to form. B: igneous 8. Why are some igneous rocks coarse and others are smooth? heat & pressure Igneous rocks have different textures based on their crystal size. Crystal size is determined by how quickly the magma or lava cools. 9. Which type of rock o�en contains fossils and how do you think this occurs? C: metamorphic Sedimentary rock o�en has fossils. As organisms die their bodies are trapped between layers of sediment and become fossilized.
