How do you describe the main differences and similarities between moon rocks and earth rocks?
Moon rocks are unique in that they have tiny craters, and even tinier craters within those tiny craters. And within those tiny craters within the tiny craters are even tinier craters. This is due to micrometers which do not reach the earth's surface. It's also a result of large meteors splattering small pieces of moon regolith as secondary meteors. None of this is possible on earth. The similarity between moon rocks and earth rocks is that they are basically feldspars and basalt, the same thing that makes up the earth's crust.
Rocks made from layers of sediment composed of tiny rocks and shells are called?

Do rocks change from one type to another or not change at all?
Rocks are constantly changing types. The three types are metamorphic, sedimentary and igneous. Igneous rocks are created when magma or lava cools and solidifies. Metamorphic rocks are created when rocks are put under high pressure and high heat, which compacts the molecules in the rocks. Sedimentary rocks are created when small particles of rocks accumulate in an area and are cemented together via pressure or chemical change. Therefore, sedimentary and igneous rocks can become metamorphic rocks if they are buried deep in the earth's crust. Metamorphic and sedimentary rocks can become igneous rocks if they are melted then resolidify from the magma or lava. Metamorphic and igneous rocks can become sedimentary rocks if they are chipped into tiny pieces then accumulate together and become cemented.
