1. Rock formed from cooled magma or lava.
2. The process where liquid rock cools and turns into solid crystals.
3. the pressure in the Earth shifts the layers of rock upward or downward.
6. Rock that has changed form due to heat and pressure.
8. is a model that describes how rocks are created, changed, and broken down.
11. The breaking down of rocks by wind, water, and other natural forces.
14. Rock formed from compressed and cemented sediments.
15. Soils that allow water to pass through them quickly are said to be permeable
17. Melted rock beneath the Earth's surface.
19. small grains, sticky texture when wet
