Learn More About The Rocks Drawing
Pebble. Stone. Boulder. The simple rock goes by many names. By definition, rocks are solid masses of metals, minerals, and crystals called aggregates.
The study of rocks is known as petrology, and it is a central component of the earth science, geology.
Rocks can be placed in three different classifications. In Latin, the word igneus meant "fire," and igneous rocks are those formed by fire - specifically, by the heat of lava and magma.
Sedimentary rock, on the other hand, is created when tiny particles on the earth's surface are pressed together to become a whole.
Finally, metamorphic rock is any type of rock that has been changed in form by the addition of heat and pressure.
