water The answer is actually permeable.
A word that means rocks which can soak up water?
Permeable rocks have the ability to absorb and hold water due to their porous nature.
Is metamorphic rock non porous rock?
Yes. Since metamorphic rocks are rocks that have been changed through intense heat and pressure, they have been compacted and are more dense. For example, a conglomerate is a sedimentary rock comprised of large grains of gravel that have been cemented together, and can be porous. When a conglomerate undergoes massive heat and pressure, it is metamorphosed into a metaconglomerate, which is more dense and not at all porous.
Are igneous rocks less porous than sedimentary rocks?
Generally, yes. Igneous rocks are typically less porous than sedimentary rocks because they form from molten magma that cools and solidifies quickly, leaving minimal space for pores to form. Sedimentary rocks, on the other hand, are often composed of loose grains or fragments that can create more pore spaces within the rock.
Does the oil under the earth flow?
Oil under the earth does not flow like water in a river. It is contained in porous rocks and moves very slowly over time due to the pressure and temperature of the surrounding rocks. The movement of oil is generally through porous rocks and fractures in the Earth's crust.

What does a porous rock mean?

Where is precipitation stored between or within the rocks?
Yes. It will depend on the type of rock. For a porous rock,such as sandstone or shale, the water can be within the rocks. For non-porous rocks it will be stored between the rocks.
