  1. 2. grained Igneous rock that has large crystal grains.
  2. 4. Describes the texture of metamorphic rock in which the mineral grains are NOT arranged in planes or bands.
  3. 8. grained Igneous rocks that have either small or no crystal grains.
  4. 9. The consolidation of sediments resulting from the weight of overlying deposits.
  5. 10. To make solid; make into a hard or compact mass; change from a liquid or gaseous state to a solid state.
  6. 14. Igneous rock that has medium sized crystal grains.
  7. 16. igneous rock A type of rock that forms as a result of volcanic activity at or near the Earth's surface; cools fast, crystals won't last.

  4. 6. Change in the structure of something.
  5. 7. To become crystallized again.
  6. 11. The chemical makeup of a rock; describes either the minerals or other materials in the rock; the "ingredients" of something.
  7. 12. gneous rock A type of Rock formed from the cooling & solidification of magma beneath the Earth's surface; cools slow, crystals will grow.
  8. 13. rock Type of rock formed by sediments compacting & cementing together.
  9. 14. rock Type of rock formed from another type of rock being exposed to extreme heat & pressure changing it into another type of rock.
  10. 15. The process in which material is laid down or dropped.
