To the people that are doing the "Rock Worksheet" the answer for problem #5 is in the paper but the answer is actually (what I put), "Another name for igneous rocks is the rock of fire."
Igneous rocks are rocks that form from the cooling of magma or lava, and "igneous" is derived from the Latin word for "fire." Examples of igneous rocks include basalt, granite, and pumice.
Sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic.
igneous
igneous rocks
It would be a ingeous rock.
Rhyolititcen rocks.
Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of molten materials.
Examples of igneous rocks are pumice, obsidian, basalt, and rhyolite.
Sedimentary rock can be made up partially of igneous clasts, but igneous rock is igneous rock.
Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have "morphed" into another kind of rock. These rocks were once igneous or sedimentary rocks.
Igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks are the three main types of rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling of molten rock, sedimentary rocks from the accumulation of sediment, and metamorphic rocks from the transformation of existing rocks under heat and pressure.
