What type of rocks are formed by processes powered by the sun?
sedimentary Mr. R This is incorrect. The answer is metamorphic.
What kind of rocks are formed when bits and pieces of other rocks are compacted?
Compaction and cementation of sediments are the processes of lithification which form clastic sedimentary rock.
Increased temperature usually results in?
An increase in the kinetic energy of the molecules that a materiel is formed from. This can lead to a softening of the material or if enough energy is supplied the melting of the material. It can also cause chemical reactions which may alter the material. Both these processes occur in metamorphic rocks.
What must happen to sediments before they become sedimentary rocks?
They must undergo deposition then have heat and pressure applied. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the actions of chemical or mechanical processes.

What type of rocks are formed by the processes powered by the sun?
sedimentary Mr. R This is incorrect. The answer is metamorphic.
What rock is powerd by the sun?
Sedimentary rocks are created by processes powered by the sun instead of the heat of the Earth, like other rocks.
What is heat formed of?
energy
What are the 3 processes by which sedimentary rocks are formed?
mechanical , chemical and organic
Why are rocks not the same?
Because different rocks are formed by different processes and made up of different mineral assemblages.

What type of rocks are formed by processes by the sun?
sedimentary Mr. R This is incorrect. The answer is metamorphic.
How does rock's form?
Rock forms through three processes. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the compression of sediment. Igneous rocks are formed when magma crystallizes after melting. Metamorphic rocks are sedimentary and igneous rocks that have been subjected to pressure and heat .
