Both are solid and naturally occurring materials with chemical compositions.
They also make up the earth around us
Metamorphic is a group of rocks with similar characteristics. There are minerals in the rocks so they could be considered made of minerals but they are not minerals themselves.
Most igneous rocks have a relatively homogenous mix of minerals which are interlocked.
rocks and minerals
A rock is made of 2 or more minerals, minerals make up rocks but rocks cannot make up minerals.
Because rocks are made up of minerals but minerals aren't made up of rocks. Rocks are made up of little bits of many minerals. An example is granite. You know how it has speckles in it? Those are a bunch of mineral grains mixed up to form the rock granite.

Minerals that make up moon rocks are the same minerals that are found on Earth. Some moon rocks have minerals that combine to form kinds of rocks that are not found on Earth. BlueStar(:
Rocks usually contain a mixture of minerals.
Soil minerals and rocks are similar in that both are composed of naturally occurring inorganic substances, and they contribute to the Earth's structure and fertility. However, they differ in size and formation; soil minerals are typically smaller particles that form through the weathering of rocks, while rocks are larger aggregates of minerals. Additionally, soil minerals play a crucial role in supporting plant life and influencing soil properties, whereas rocks are primarily considered solid masses that may not directly support biological activity.
Rocks contain minerals in them and minerals are just the minerals themselves.
They are all made of minerals. They are solid. They are part of the rock cycle.

Rocks are solid naturally occurring matter consisting of one or more minerals. Minerals are solid naturally occurring chemical elements or compounds having definite chemical composition and specific arrangements of atoms.
Rocks that feel and look the same likely share similar mineral composition and texture. Minerals present in the rock, as well as the way the rock formed (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic), contribute to its appearance and feel. Thus, rocks that appear and feel the same are likely to be composed of similar minerals and have undergone similar geological processes.
