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