Question

what are the 3 major types of rocks? (1 point)metamorphic, igneous, cementationmagma, lava, crystalsair, water, earth, fireigneous, sedimentary, metamorphic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To determine the 3 major types of rocks, we analyze each option:

  • The first option includes "Cementation" (a process, not a rock type), so it's incorrect.
  • The second option lists "Magma" (molten rock), "Lava" (magma at the surface), and "Crystals" (mineral structures), none of which are rock types.
  • The third option is a classical element concept, not related to rock types.
  • The fourth option lists Igneous (formed from cooled magma/lava), Sedimentary (formed from sediment deposition and compaction), and Metamorphic (formed from existing rocks under heat/pressure), which are the three major rock types.

Answer:

D. Igneous, Sedimentary, Metamorphic
