The Rock Cycle Study Guide

Master the rock cycle! This study guide covers igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks.

1. What processes take place for igneous rock to turn into sedimentary rock? Hint: Look at the rock cycle diagram Please make sure that you spell the processes correctly. Your choices are:heatingcoolingcompacting and cementingheat and pressureweathering and erosion weathering and erosion compacting and cementing 2. The process of compacting and cementing forms what type of rock? sedimentary metamorphic igneous 3. Give the steps that show how a metamorphic rock can change into a sedimentary rock. Please make sure that you spell the processes correctly. Your choices are:heatingcoolingcompacting and cementingheat and pressureweathering and erosion weathering and erosion compacting and cementing 4. Give the steps that show how a metamorphic rock can change into an igneous rock. Please make sure that you spell the processes correctly. Your choices are:meltingcoolingcompacting and cementingheat and pressureweathering and erosion melting cooling 5. When metamorphic rock turns into magma what change of state(from what state [solid, liquid, gas] to what state) has taken place? gas to liquid solid to liquid liquid to solid solid to gas 6-8. Match the type of rock to its characteristic. Hint: You did this on your google slides about the 3 types of rocks. Sedimentary Rock contains sand, fossils, or pebbles Metamorphic Rock ribbon-like layers Igneous Rock glass-like surface or can be shiny 9. We have discussed weathering, erosion, and deposition. Please match a term with each statement. Sediment is moved by erosion When sediment is dropped in a new location, we use the term deposition weathering occurs when rocks break into smaller pieces Use this picture to answer the next 5 questions 10.
