  4. IgneousRock Granite, obsidian, and basalt Marble, quartzite, gneiss Include three labeled examples for each. Metamorphic Rock Rocks Coal, sandstone, limestone, and shale Sedimentary Rock

  5. heat magma cooling The Rock CycleUse the shapes below to recreate the rock cycle. Heat and pressure Metamorphic rocks Igneous rocks Heat and pressure erosion erosion erosion Sedimentary rocks sediments Pressure and cementation

  6. What happens when igneous rock is exposed to crashing waves? Answer: The waters erosion breaks the rocks into sediments
