Answer:
CLASSIFICATION The classification of rocks is based on two criteria, TEXTURE and COMPOSITION. The texture has to do with the sizes and shapes of mineral grains and other constituents in a rock, and how these sizes and shapes relate to each other. Such factors are controlled by the process which formed the rock.
