Rock Cycle
Across
- 2. Involves direct contact of a rock with magma
- 4. The process of moving sediment from one place to another
- 6. The process of breaking down rocks
- 8. Example of intrusive Igneous rock (Stone Mountain in Georgia is an exposed __)
- 11. Midway between felsic and mafic
- 14. Igneous rocks can be classified based on __ content
- 15. Molten rock above the surface of the earth
- 16. Something that builds as a rock is buried, and more rocks pile on top of it
- 20. Formed by regional metamorphism
- 21. Rocks made by precipitation of dissolved ions
- 22. Resistance of a substance to flow
- 25. Movement of sediment away from source
- 26. Sedimentary __ composed of coarse, angular rock fragments cemented together
- 28. The diameter of individual grains of sediment
- 30. Rocks made by accumulation of biological debris
- 31. Contain CO3 as part of their chemical composition
- 32. Composed of rounded gravel cemented together
Down
- 1. Formed by contact metamorphism
- 3. rocks with large crystals
- 5. A rock from which oil may be extracted by heating in the absence of oxygen
- 7. Forms from other rocks that have been squeezed and heated for a long time deep within the earth's crust
- 9. Inside Earth,__, pressure, and melting change sedimentary and igneous rock into metamorphic rock
- 10. Involves a collision between continental or oceanic plates
- 12. Tend to be dark-colored rocks
- 13. Settling and coming to rest of moved material
- 17. Processes converting loose sediment into rock
- 18. Molten rock beneath the surface of the earth
- 19. Rocks produced from rock fragments
- 23. Example of metamorphic rock
- 24. Tend to be light-colored rocks
- 27. rocks with fine grains
- 29. Form from evaporating saline waters
