Rocks are the very substance of the Earth. They are

composed of the same elementary particles as all other

matter in the universe, but the particles are so arranged

in rocks that the aggregate masses are very extensive.

Individual rock bodies commonly occupy hundreds or

thousands of cubic miles of the Earth’s volume. Even

so, they differ greatly from place to place because of the

many different rock-forming processes.

What rocks are like at depths within the Earth is known

only imperfectly from indirect measurements made by

various techniques. Rocks near the surface, however,

have been studied for many years, and their

characteristics are well known. Studies of rocks have

taught much about the structure, composition, and

history of the Earth. In fact, the success of geologists in

reconstructing the Earth’s story by piecing together

information from rocks is one of the wonders of science.

Geologists classify rocks in three great groups according

to the major Earth processes that formed them. The

three groups are igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, and

metamorphic rocks. Anyone who wishes to build a

meaningful rock collection should become familiar with

the characteristics and interrelationships of these great

groups. To transform a random group of rock

specimens into a true collection, application of the

geologic principles on which rock classification is based

is necessary

Explanation:hope this helps

your answer is going to be physical weathering

the wetland preservation movement began in the u.s. in earnest with the clean water act (cwa) of 1972. although not specifically written to protect wetlands, the cwa is comprised of a series of regulations designed to prevent pollutants from contaminating u.s. waters.
