The rock cycle is the system of rock create on earth. It is the system were rocks are created or changed into igneous, sedimentary, or metaphoric rocks.

A rock is a solid object composed of minerals.

The plant life cycle is a seed to a plant. The plant has a flower. The flower is pollenated and a new seed is created.

The animal life cycle is more complicated. Some insects have egg to larva to pupa to adult. Some amphibians have an egg to tadpole to adult. Some animals have eggs that hatch outside the mother and some give live birth.

Rock is a solid material that is composed of minerals. A specific rock represents a stage in the rock cycle.

The rock cycle is the natural process in which rocks transform from one rock type into another rock type over time, a type of natural recycling.

Igneous rocks, which are formed from magma cooling underground, or lava above ground are formed from previous igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rocks which have become melted, usually as a result of plate collision and subduction.------->

When these igneous rocks are exposed to weathering and erosion, they break down into smaller particles that are transported by wind and water to a place of deposition, where they can form into sedimentary rock strata, through a process of lithification, where excess water is squeezed out by overburden pressures and the particles are cemented together by various minerals precipitating out of solution. Igneous and metamorphic rocks can both be turned into sedimentary rocks in this way.------->

Igneous and sedimentary rocks can also be changed by heat and/or pressure into metamorphic rocks, by transforming their existing mineral structures into new minerals or realigning the existing minerals. There are different degrees of metamorphism, so even an existing metamorphic rock can become a different metamorphic rock. -------->

If these metamorphic rocks are melted, then solidify, they become igneous rocks, and the cycle starts all over again.

The rock cycle is largely driven by lithospheric plate movements which cause subduction and uplift, also by climatic conditions and the associated erosional elements.

For a diagram, see the link below under the tab, 'Related Links'.
Rocks are made up of two or more minerals and the rock cycle describe how different rocks are related to one another and how rocks change from one type to another.

Well, a plant gets planted, and then starts growing. When its a flower or bush or tree, it will live a few years then die. The cycle is (in simple terms) for a plant, planted, growing, grown up, died, replanted.

An animal cycle is different because, plants cant reproduce (unless you count seeds falling and landing somewhere else) but animals can. Mammals give birth. Lizards, snakes (not all), birds and even some underwater animals, lay eggs. The animal cycle is birth, growing up, grown up, give birth, died.

  • The rock cycle is slower than the water cycle.

The rock cycle is different from a plant or animal life cycle because rock cycles can take millions or even billions of years , while a plant or animal cycle takes only its lifetime.
