1. name the three different types of rocks and explain how each rock forms. 2. what was the name of the supercontinent the last time all of the continents were connected in one piece?

Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. The three types of rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compaction of sediments (small particles like sand, mud). Metamorphic rocks form when existing rocks are changed by heat, pressure, or chemical - processes.
  2. The supercontinent that was the last time all of the continents were connected was Pangaea.

Answer:

  1. Igneous rocks form from cooling of magma/lava. Sedimentary rocks form from sediment accumulation. Metamorphic rocks form from existing rock changes due to heat, pressure, or chemicals.
