Chapter 2 Rocks DR

1. the texture of metamorphic rock in which the mineral grains are arranged in planes or bands.
7. the series of processes in which a rock forms,changes from one type to another,is destroyed,and forms again by geological prosesses.
8. the process in which sedimentary rocks are arranged in layers.
12. the process in which material is laid down.
14. when pressure builds up in a rock that is buried deep below other rock formations or when large pieces of the Earth's crust collide with eachother
15. the prosses by which,ice,water,or gravity transports soil and sediment from one location to another.

2. rock formed from the cooling and solidification of magma beneath the Earth's surface.
3. the chemical make up of a rock; describes either the minerals or other materials in the rock.
4. rock that forms as a result of volcanic activity at or near the Earth's surface.
5. a naturally occurring solid mixture of one or more minerals or organic matter.
6. they form when fine-grained sediments at the bottom of a shallow body of water are exposed to the air and dry out.
9. the quality of a rock that is based on the sizes,shapes,and positions of the rocks grains.
10. the texture of metamorphic rock in which the mineral grains are not arranged in planes or bands.
11. layers of rocks.
13. a change in the shape of a rock caused by a force placed on it.
