Answer:
The three main types, or classes, of rock are sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous and the differences among them have to do with how they are formed. Sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of sand, shells, pebbles, and other fragments of material. Together, all these particles are called sediment.

Write any three characteristic of each type of rock
- The properties that differentiate different types of rocks include their mineral and chemical composition, permeability, particle size, texture, and texture of the particles.
- Rock deep inside the Earth melts, forming igneous rocks. Sand, silt, dead plants, and animal bones accumulate in layers to form sedimentary rocks. Rocks that have undergone metamorphic alteration as a result of heat and pressure underground.
- Rocks can be classified as sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic. These rocks are all products of physical processes that are a component of the rock cycle, such as melting, cooling, eroding, compacting, or deforming.
- According to properties including mineral and chemical composition, permeability, texture of the constituent particles, and particle size, rocks are categorised. The processes that created the rocks are responsible for these physical characteristics.
