Answer:

Rocks differ from one location to the next because of various factors like humidity, the amount of precipitation the region receives and the temperature.  

The type of rock common in our city is sandstone.

The characteristics of such type of rock are:

  • It contains very small grains of minerals in which the ordinary ones  are feldspar and quartz.
  • It is formed by the gathering of the sand layers into piles called grus.

Answer:

To geologists, a rock is a characteristic substance made out of strong gems of various minerals that have been combined into a strong protuberance.

There are three fundamental sorts of shake: molten, sedimentary, and transformative.

Very regular in the Earth's outside layer, molten rocks are volcanic and structure from liquid material. They incorporate magma regurgitated from volcanoes, yet in addition rocks like stone, which are shaped by magma that hardens far underground.

Commonly, rock makes up huge pieces of the considerable number of mainlands. The ocean bottom is shaped of a dim magma called basalt, the most widely recognized volcanic shake. Basalt is additionally found in volcanic magma streams, for example, those in Hawaii, Iceland, and enormous pieces of the U.S. Northwest.

Sedimentary rocks are shaped from dissolved sections of different shakes or even from the remaining parts of plants or creatures. The sections aggregate in low-lying territories—lakes, seas, and deserts—and after that are compacted once more into shake by the heaviness of overlying materials. Sandstone is framed from sand, mudstone from mud, and limestone from seashells, diatoms, or bonelike minerals hastening out of calcium-rich water.

Rocks differ from one location to the next because of various factors like humidity, the amount of precipitation the region receives and the temperature.

Fossils are most every now and again found in sedimentary shake, which comes in layers, called strata.

Changeable rocks are sedimentary or volcanic rocks that have been changed by weight, heat, or the interruption of liquids. The warmth may originate from adjacent magma or heated water encroaching by means of hot springs. It can likewise originate from subduction, when structural powers draw shakes far below the Earth's surface.
