The document discusses physical environment and provides information about rocks. It defines a rock as a solid, inorganic substance that occurs naturally without a definite atomic structure or chemical composition. It notes that rocks come in different shapes, colors, weights, sizes and textures. It also explains that rocks consist of mixtures of different minerals that change form over thousands or millions of years through the rock cycle and differ between regions.
2. ROCK
A rock is a solid, inorganic, naturally-formed substance without a particular
atomic structure or chemical composition.
Rocks occur in different shapes, colors, weights, strengths, sizes, and
texture.
Every rocks consists of several different minerals, which are mixed up inside
the rock through a variety of geologic processes.
Rocks also change from one form to another and differ from one region to
another because of the rock cycle. These changes usually take thousands or
millions of years.
