1. Sedimentary Rocks & their Types!! What are Sedimentary Rocks, how are they formed and what are their types? Provide a brief description of these with examples of each type. Do mention the digenesis process that these rocks go through.
2. Metamorphic Rock Types!! Here too, we will discuss what these rocks are, their types and their rock textures, which are very significant when discussing these rocks. Provide examples of these whenever possible.
3. Process of Metamorphism! In this weekly module, you will study about the term metamorphism. Meta=change, while morphism = change in the form rather than any chemical composition. Explain your understanding of this term in terms of how different types of metamorphic rocks are formed from igneous or sedimentary rocks and what are the factors that determine their formation. Provide examples of different types of these.
