Igneous rocks form from molten rock. 3.2 Igneous rocks form from molten rock. As molten rock cools, minerals crystallize and form igneous rocks. intrusive igneous rock extrusive igneous rock igneous CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE

Igneous rocks form from molten rock. 3.2 Igneous rocks form from molten rock. As molten rock cools, minerals crystallize and form igneous rocks. intrusive igneous rock extrusive igneous rock Extrusive igneous rocks cool quickly at Earth's surface. Intrusive igneous rocks cool slowly within Earth. VISUALIZATION Explore an animation showing how crystals form as molten rock cools. CLASSZONE.COM CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE

Sedimentary rocks form from earlier rocks. 3.3 Sedimentary rocks form from earlier rocks. Layers of sedimentary rocks form as sediment • sediments are pressed or cemented together CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE

Sedimentary rocks form from earlier rocks. 3.3 Sedimentary rocks form from earlier rocks. Layers of sedimentary rocks form as sediment • sediments are pressed or cemented together • dissolved minerals re-form as water evaporates CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE

Metamorphic rocks form as existing rocks change. 3.4 Metamorphic rocks form as existing rocks change. Metamorphic rocks form as the structure of the parent rocks change and as their minerals recrystallize. metamorphism recrystallization foliation shale schist heat and pressure Nit-picky, but the green-gray arrow (prior to and proceeding animation) has a line btw the head and tail. Could bring the two portions together so there is no line? (I can’t figure out how to get down to that arrow…) CHAPTER RESOURCES SECTION OUTLINE
