How did the lab activities help you answer the lesson question, "How are minerals and rocks classified?” What did you learn from conducting this lab?
The lab activities showed that minerals can be classified by testing physical properties like hardness, streak, luster, and cleavage. I also learned that rocks are classified based on properties like grain size, mineral composition, and foliation, which provide clues about how the rocks were formed.
I know because it has bands or is foliated.✔ I know because it is made of sediments.I know because it has very large grains.
