match each type of rock with the way it is formed.
pressure and heat cooling magma erosion and deposition
cooling lava
intrusive igneous rock

extrusive igneous rock

sedimentary rock

metamorphic rock

Explanation:

• Intrusive igneous rocks form when magma cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, so they match with "cooling magma".
• Extrusive igneous rocks form when lava cools quickly on the Earth's surface, so they match with "cooling lava".
• Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments through erosion, transportation, and deposition, so they match with "erosion and deposition".
• Metamorphic rocks are formed from existing rocks that are subjected to high pressure and heat, causing them to change, so they match with "pressure and heat".

Answer:

• intrusive igneous rock → cooling magma
• extrusive igneous rock → cooling lava
• sedimentary rock → erosion and deposition
• metamorphic rock → pressure and heat
