While the number of cells in plants and animals varies from species to species, humans contain more than 10 trillion (10 13) cells. Most plant and animal cells are visible only under a microscope, with dimensions between 1 and 100 micrometres.

Scientists generally classify rocks by how they were made or formed. There are three major types of rocks: Metamorphic, Igneous, and Sedimentary. Metamorphic Rocks - Metamorphic rocks are formed by great heat and pressure. They are generally found inside the Earth's crust where there is enough heat and pressure to form the rocks. Metamorphic rocks are often made from other types of rock. For example, shale, a sedimentary rock, can be changed, or metamorphosed, into a metamorphic rock such as slate or gneiss. Other examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, anthracite, soapstone, and schist. Igneous Rocks - Igneous rocks are formed by volcanoes.
