What kind of rocks is formed in the ground?
Solid rocks
Do the movement in of rocks in the Earth cause the ground to shake?
the movement in the rocks dosnot cause the ground to shake?
How rocks are obtained?
from the ground
How egneous rocks are formed?
Igneous rocks are types of rocks that are formed by fire. They can be formed in the ground from magma that gets trapped in air pockets. Above ground they can form when lava cools along the ground.
Can igneous rock be formed above or below ground?
It is formed both- above ground (as extrusive igneous rocks) or below ground (as intrusive igneous rocks).
Which types of rocks are formed above ground?
Extrusive igneous rocks are one type of rocks that can be formed above the ground. Sedimentary rocks can also be formed above the ground.
What types of rocks are formed above ground?
Extrusive igneous rocks and some sedimentary rocks are formed above ground.
What kind of rocks is formed in the ground?
Solid rocks
Why do rocks form?
Igneous rocks form because, magma cools under the ground, or magma erupts, then cools on the ground forming these rocks.
