What describes rock that was formed when molten rock cooled down?
Igneous rock is formed.
What type of rock is formed around the outside of igneous intrusions?
Igneous rocks can be changed to sedimentary rocks outside of igneous intrusions. This is due to silt built up and weathering.
What is igneous rock formed from magma?
An igneous rock formed from magma is intrusive.
True or false sedimentary rock can be formed from changes in igneous rock but idneous rock cannot be formed changes in the sedimentary rock?
False Sedimetary rocks can be formed from changes in igneous rock, and igneous rock can be from changes in sedimentary rock.
When igneous rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure they become what type o rock?
A sedimentary rock is formed when an igneous rock is subjected to weathering, erosion, compaction, and cementation!
What process does igneous rock have to go through to be formed into sediment?
The igneous rock must be exposed to weathering, whether it be chemical weathering, or mechanical weathering.
What kind of weathering formed Carter Caves?
igneous rock
What type of rock could be formed from the weathering and erosion of metamorphic rock?
A Igneous B Sedimentary
What effect does weathering have on igneous rock?
The effect of weathering is to reduce the volume of the igneous rock.
How do rocks change colors?
by weathering ************ Igneous rock is initially formed when lava cools down. After which weathering would begin.
How Metamorphic rock form?
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
How do igneous rocks change to metamorphic rock?
A metamorphic rock is a rock that has changed form through heat and pressure so a igneous rock (made from molten material from the earth that has solidified) would change to metamorphic rock through heat and pressure.
What is the diffidence between an igneous rock and sedimentary rock?
An igneous rock is formed when molten rock solidifies. A sedimentary rock is formed when per-existing rocks are broken down by chemical and mechanical weathering and the debris is deposited and squashed together to solidify.
What does weathering have to do with how a sedimentary rock is formed?
If you don't have weather then the igneous rock won't break up into sedmints which won't turn into a sedimentary rock.
Type of rock formed from molten rock?
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.
What describes rock that was formed when molten rock cooled down?
Igneous rock is formed.
What is more resistant to weathering metamorphic or igneous rock?
