Which is the process that breaks up rock on Earth’s surface?
Geologists have classified rocks into three major groups of rocks which are:
Any rock that forms from another rock as a result of changes in heat or pressure (or both) is a:
Streak is the color of a mineral’s
What kind of igneous rock usually contains large crystals?

A rock that forms from many small fragments of other rocks is a(n)

Which rock cycle process causes many sedimentary rocks to have visible layers?
If heat and pressure inside Earth cause the texture and crystal structure of a rock to change, what new material is formed?
You find a rock in which the grains are arranged in wavy, parallel bands of white and black crystals. What kind of rock have you probably found?

not its volume is a:

The amount of space that a matter occupies is its:
A naturally occurring solid that can form by inorganic processes and that has a crystal structure and a definite chemical composition.
The particles of a mineral line up in a pattern that repeats over and over again with a pattern of a mineral’s particles that forms a translucent or transparent solid is a:
An element is a substance composed of
All minerals are substances that where formed by
To be classified as a mineral, a substance must satisfy this
