Answer 2

Ans: Rocks are of the three types:

1. Igneous rocks: When the molten magma cools, it becomes solid. Rocks formed in this way are called  igneous rocks. They are also called primary rocks. They are of two types—intrusive rocks and extrusive  rocks.

2. Sedimentary rocks: Small fragments of rocks are called sediments. These sediments are transported and  deposited by wind, water, etc. These loose sediments are compressed and hardened to form sedimentary  rocks. For example, sandstone is made from grains of sand.

3. Metamorphic rocks: When igneous and sedimentary rocks Eire subjected to great heat and pressure, they  change into metamorphic rocks. For example, clay changes into slate and limestone into marble.
