What I Can Do

I will do a water test using a glass with ¾ water. A diamond is dense so if

its real diamonds it will sink easily and if it stays afloat then its fake.

What’s More

A.

I.

1. Igneous rocks
2. Igneous rocks formed when molten rock (magma)
solidifies either underneath the earth crust to form
plutonic (intrusive) igneous rocks or on the surface of the
earth to form volcanic (extrusive) igneous rocks. They are
simply the rocks formed through heating then followed by
cooling.
3. Igneous rocks normally contains no fossils, rarely reacts
with acid, usually made of two or more minerals, may be
light or dark colored, may be fine-grained or glassy
(extrusive) and etc.

II.

1. Sedimentary rocks
2. Sedimentary rocks went through geological processes such
as erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and
lithification. Sedimentary rocks formed on or near our
surface as opposed to metamorphic or igneous rocks.
 3. Sedimentary structures are larger and havegenerally three-
dimensional physical features. They are best seen in outcrop
or in large hand specimens rather than through a microscope.
Sedimentary structures include features like bedding, ripple
marks, fossil tracks and trails, and mud cracks.

III.

1. Metamorphic rocks
2. Metamorphic rocks are pre-existing rocks on the surface
of the earth that change in composition and density over
a long period under the influence of pressure and heat.
3. The two characteristics used to classify metamorphic
rocks are foliation and lineation. These rocks are
identifiable by the presence of certain mineral types and
specific textures.

What I Can Do

The rocks that she found are sedimentary rocks. Organic detrital
rocks form when parts of plants and animals decay in the ground,
leaving behind biological materials that are compressed then becomes
rock. Coal is a sedimentary rock formed over millions of years from
compressed plants.
