Question

Maria wrote the following steps in the formation of igneous rocks. Step 1: Rocks pushed under Earth due to movement of tectonic plate Step 2: Rocks melt Step 3: Molten rocks are heated Step 4: Rocks solidify Which step contains an error?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1: Rocks pushed under Earth due to movement of tectonic plate

Step 2: Molten rocks are heated

Step 3: Rocks melt

Step 4:  Rocks solidify

Explanation:

Step 1: Rocks pushed under Earth due to movement of tectonic plate

Step 2: Rocks melt

Step 3: Molten rocks are heated

Step 4:  Rocks solidify

In the formation of igneous rocks, rocks are pushed under the earth due to the movement of tectonic plate.

As the rocks are pulled beneath the crust, they are heated and begin to melt to form magma.

Then, with time, the magma solidify to form an igneous rock.

 Step 2 is wrong.

  Step 3 should come first

Step 1: Rocks pushed under Earth due to movement of tectonic plate

Step 2: Molten rocks are heated

Step 3: Rocks melt

Step 4:  Rocks solidify
