Lochs are formed by the bending and rising of the earth. In fact, the most well known loch, Loch Ness, is a giant crack in the earth's surface.
Some bodies of water in Scotland include Loch Ness, Loch Lomond, the Firth of Clyde, and the North Sea. These bodies of water play a significant role in Scotland's landscape and are popular tourist destinations.
Sandstone: formed by the cementation of sand grains. Conglomerate: formed by the cementation of rounded pebbles. Siltstone: formed by the compaction of silt-sized particles. Shale: formed by the compaction of clay and silt particles.
Sedimentary rocks formed from the remains of plants and animals are called organic sedimentary rocks. Examples include coal, formed from the remains of plants, and limestone, formed from the shells of marine organisms.
Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary are the three types of rocks. Sedimentary is formed when layer of mud or silt build up gradually. Igneous is formed when molten magma cools. Metamorphic is formed when a type of rock changes to another type
The Extrusive igneous rock is formed on the earths surface while the Intrusive igneous rock is formed within or inside the earths crust.
