Is granite an igneous rock?
Granite is an intrusive igneous rock.
What is the diffrence between basalt and granite?
Basalt is the most common volcanic rock. It contains the minerals plagioclase and augite. It can come in black or dark gray and has a hardness of 6-7 on the MOHS scale. Its grains are fine. Granite is an intrusive rock. It contains feldspar, quartz and mica. It can come in black, gray, pink, red, or yellow. It has a hardness of 6 on the MOHS scale. Its grains are fine. Both, however, are igneous rocks.
How could you explain the presence of an igneous rock in a bed of sedimentary rock?
Because igneous Rocks can become sediments through weathering and erosion so it could just be a not fully broken up igneous rock sorry not the best answer but seeing as this is a science 7 question I decided to write it simpler
What are 7 elements igneous rock contains?
The seven main elements commonly found in igneous rocks are silicon, oxygen, aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, and potassium. These elements make up the minerals that compose igneous rocks and give them their characteristic properties.
What is a molten material ejected from a volcano?
Molten rock (magma) that spews from a volcano is called lava, When it cools, the lava forms igneous rocks.

How is quartz classified igneous metamorphic or sedimentary hardness luster cleavage etc?
A group of minerals are called a rock, Quartz isn't a rock, it's a mineral. It has a hardness of around 7, it doesn't have cleavege but has a conchoidal fracture.
What exactly is the rock cycle?
1)igneous rock 2)weathering/erosion 3)sediments 4)compact/cementation 5)sedimentary rock 6)heat and pressure 7)metamorphic rock 8)melting 9)magma 10)cooling then the cycle starts all over
What 7 letters have many letters the answer is mailbox?
?
How does igneous rock change into a methaporphic rock then a sedimentary rock?
An igneous rock is formed with volcanic activity- magma or lava. This rock would then undergo extreme heat and/or pressure to become a metamorphic rock. This rock would then weather and erode to become sediment. This sediment would be deposited in an area, compacted when other sediment settles on top of it, and cemented when dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together. That process of weathering/erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation would form a sedimentary rock. Hope this helps! This information is very reliable. It came straight from my darling textbook, Interactive Science for Indiana- Grade 7.
