the three major rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rock.
igneous- volcanic rocks
sedimentary- rocks with layers on top
metamorphic- rocks that formed to another rock

Moon rocks resemble rocks from the Earth's crust layer. They are predominantly composed of igneous rocks like basalt and anorthosite, similar to those found on Earth's crust.
Moon rocks are very similar to earth rocks an they are not intrinsically magnetic.
The mean density of the Moon is around 3.34 g/cm³, which is similar to the densities of mantle rocks found on Earth. The Moon's composition is primarily made up of silicate rocks similar to those found in the Earth's mantle, which contributes to its comparable density.

it is the materials on the periodic table and rocks such as ignous rocks sedimentry and metamorphic rocks and many many more!

After many years, as rocks are eroded, gases trapped in them will be released into the atmosphere so in a way rocks are "storage rooms" for gases just as our Earth is.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaater and islans and rocks and many many many many other things.

The rocks of Earth's crust are composed of minerals of many types, rather than being covered by a specific mineral.
I am answering my own question but there are 3000 minerals known to Earth.... if thats just how many rocks that are known to Earth than think about how many minerals that are not known to Earth.
Lunar rocks are those forming the Moon - as the word 'lunar' says. Earth rocks are formed on Earth - but the rock forming the Moon is also a constituent of the Earth.
20 different kinds of minerals make up 95% of earth's rocks.
Yes, rocks are part of geology, which is an earth science.
The three main types of rocks on Earth are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks are created from the accumulation and compaction of sediment particles. Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone changes in temperature and pressure, often deep within the Earth's crust.
Rocks were brought back to the Earth from the various Moon landings the Americans undertook. No other rocks from the Moon are on Earth. The Moon was formed from the Earth - so, if anything, there are Earth rocks on the Moon.
