What kind of rocks are caused by weathering?
The most common rock that experiences weathering, is sedimentary rocks. Metamorphic and Igneous are unlikey to.
What is residual rocks?
it can be the last rock from weathering of preexisting rock
How are sedimentary rocks formed through the physical process?
Metamorphic, igneous, and past sedimentary rocks are turned into sediments by weathering and erosion. Then, the sediment are deposited. Finally, by compaction and/or cementation, a sedimentary rock is formed
What are igneous rocks formed at the earths surface called?
Extrusive igneous rocks.
How are igeneous rock formed?
Igneous rocks are formed by heat, pressure and cooling. They can be formed inside a volcano or outside a volcano. If they are formed outside the volcano the rocks are called extrusive igneous rocks, like basalt. If it is formed inside the volcano the rocks are called intrusive igneous rocks, like granite.
What type of rock is formed around the outside of igneous intrusions?
Igneous rocks can be changed to sedimentary rocks outside of igneous intrusions. This is due to silt built up and weathering.
How do rocks change colors?
by weathering ************ Igneous rock is initially formed when lava cools down. After which weathering would begin.

What is residual rocks?
it can be the last rock from weathering of preexisting rock
Clastic sedimentary rocks are formed from?
Fragments of preexisting rocks.
What are igneous rocks tend to be?
Resistant to weathering
How are sedimentary rocks formed physical process?
Metamorphic, igneous, and past sedimentary rocks are turned into sediments by weathering and erosion. Then, the sediment are deposited. Finally, by compaction and/or cementation, a sedimentary rock is formed
What type of rock is made from weathering and erosion?
Sedimentary rock is formed when igneous rocks weather to sediments, then the sediments compact to sedimentary rock. When Igneous rocks are subjected to heat and pressure but do not melt, they become metamorphic rock. When igneous rocks are melted they make other igneous rocks.
What are sedimentray rocks made of?
Rocks that are formed from preexisting rocks that have been weathered. After the rocks are broken down they are then transported and deposited on the floor of lakes or oceans, and then are litchi field.
What does magma have to do with igneous rocks?
Igneous rocks are formed by cooling magma.
How are sedimentary rocks formed through the physical process?
Metamorphic, igneous, and past sedimentary rocks are turned into sediments by weathering and erosion. Then, the sediment are deposited. Finally, by compaction and/or cementation, a sedimentary rock is formed
Where would igneous rocks be at?
Igneous Rocks - Rocks formed by crystallization from a melt (magma)
