Rock Cycle
Across
- 2. These two forces work together to transform rocks deep inside Earth's crust into metamorphic rock
- 6. rock that has been changed by heat and pressure
- 8. Magma that reaches Earth's surface
- 11. small, solid pieces of material that come from rocks or living things
- 13. two processes creating igneous rock formations
- 16. A type of rock that forms when particles from other rocks or the remains of plants and animals are pressed and cemented together
- 17. process that turns rock to magma
Down
- 1. The process by which wind, water, ice, or gravity transports soil and sediment MOVES from one location to another
- 3. Any process that breaks rock down into smaller pieces without changing the chemistry of the rock; typically wind and water
- 4. The process that moves large bodies of Earth materials to higher elevations
- 5. the series of processes that change one type of rock into another type of rock
- 7. The breaking down of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface.
- 9. These are the processes that form sedimentary rock.
- 10. The process that breaks down rock through chemical changes
- 12. Molten rock beneath the earth's surface
- 14. Process in which sediment is laid down in new locations.
- 15. Rock formed when magma or lava cools and hardens. (Crystallization takes place)
