A. Identify what is asked.

1. It includes the crust and upper mantle.

2. These rocks are formed through the cooling and solidification of magma.

3. It is a type of rock that has accumulated on Earth’s surface.

4. It is a naturally-occurring aggregate or combination of minerals and mineraloids, such as fossils and glass,
natural building blocks of Earth’s lithosphere.

5. It is the building blocks of rocks.

6. It is a type of rock formed through the combined products of weathering, erosion, and organic materials.

7. It is the original rock prior to metamorphism, which can either be igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphose

8. It is formed from the exposure of sedimentary or igneous rocks to high pressure, high temperature, or both
deep within Earth’s surface.

9. It is a physical property of rock-forming minerals referring to the amount of light on the surface of a rock, crystal
or mineral.

10. Give one example of minerals that are made of a single element.

B. Complete the data below about how different igneous rocks are formed.

1. Below the surface: from a slow cooling magma; rocks formed have good crystallization (coarse grained), may
become plutonic rocks or ________ igneous such as granite, diorite, and syenite

2. On the surface: from fast cooling lava; rocks formed have no visible crystals (fine-grained), may become volcanic
rocks or __________ igneous, such as basalt and andesite

3. On the surface: from the consolidation of particles erupted by explosive volcanic activity, may become
__________ rocks like ignimbrite, scoria, and pumice.

C. Give at least 2 distinct classifications or characteristics and 1 example of the following. Write your answers on the
table below.
