    Cementation

    a process where sediment is chemically glued together when minerals precipitate from the water they are dissolved in and fill the pure space between compressed sediment.

  • 2

    Erosion

    the geologic process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water

  • 3

    Magma

    the liquid or molten rock found beneath earths surface

  • 4

    Compaction

    the decrease in the volume of a fixed mass of sediment

  • 5

    Igneous rock

    form when hot molten rock crystallizes and solidifies

  • 6

    Subduction

    a geologic process in which one edge of one lithosphere plate is forced below the edge of another

  • 7

    Sediment

    solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location

  • 8

    Metamorphic

    a specific process that some rocks undergo when heat and pressure changes them

  • 9

    Sedimentary rock

    formed from pre- existing rocks or pieces of once living organisms

  • 10

    Weathering

    the breaking down or dissolving of rock and minerals on the surface of earth

  • 11

    Uplift

    an increase in the vertical elevation of earths surface in response to natural causes

  • 12

    How is sedimentary rock formed?

    from deposits of pre existing rocks or pieces of once living organism that accumulate on the earth’s surface

  • 13

    Explain the process of uplift

    the process of uplift is the rising portions of earths surface. A increase in the vertical elevation of earths surface in response to natural causes
