OpenStudy (anonymous):

And Sedimentary And Metamorphic

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Hello @Dannybrookes !

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Igneous rock (derived from the Latin word ignis meaning fire) is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form".
