Match each example with its mechanism of mineral growth.   Sulfur crystals form as gases escape from volcanoes and cool to surface temperatures. Clams grow carbonate minerals shells. Chemical elements from already-formed minerals in a rock rearrange to form a new, different, mineral during metamorphism. Salt crystals form during evaporation of sea water. Minerals grow out of cooling magma or lava to form granite rock.   1. Precipitation 2. Freezing (also referred to as "Crystallization") 3. Diffusion (also referred to as "Recrystallization") 4.
