Answer:
There are three kinds of rock:
- Igneous rock - Igneous rocks form when molten rock (magma or lava) cools and solidifies
- Sedimentary rock - Sedimentary rocks originate when particles settle out of water or air, or by precipitation of minerals from water.
- Metamorphic rock - Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form".
