What does rock classification mean?
Rock classification is the process of categorizing rocks based on their physical, chemical, and mineralogical properties. This helps geologists understand the origins and characteristics of different rocks, such as sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. Classifying rocks also aids in studying the Earth's history and geological processes.
What are the major classification of dance?

A classification of metamorphic rocks would inculde whether they are?

What classification do coral reefs that are preserved as sedimentary rocks fall under?
Preserved coral reefs that have turned into sedimentary rocks are classified as biogenic sedimentary rocks.
Was igneous rocks were classified by their their origin texture and shape?
No, igneous rocks are not classified by their shape. They are primarily classified based on their origin (either intrusive or extrusive) and their texture (coarse-grained, fine-grained, glassy, etc.). Shape or form is not a major factor in the classification of igneous rocks.
A classification scheme that grouped plutonic and metamorphic rocks together and sedimentary and volcanic rocks together would be based on what?
This classification scheme would likely be based on the genesis or origin of the rocks, as plutonic and metamorphic rocks are both associated with processes occurring beneath the Earth's surface (igneous intrusion and metamorphism), while sedimentary and volcanic rocks form at or near the Earth's surface through sedimentation and volcanic activity, respectively.
