Are the forces that drive the rock cycle beneath the earth's surface the same as the forces that drive the rock cycle on or near earth's surface?
The forces that drive the rock cycle beneath the earth's surface are not the same as the forces that drive the rock cycle on or near earth's surface because the processes of the rock cycle beneath the earth surface and above the earth surface are diffferent.
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
What processes are involved in this change of the rock cycle?
New rocks are formed, Igneous Rock, Sedimentary Rock, and Metamorphic Rock. It will take over a million years to complete the rock cycle, then it will start all over again.
What is a fragmental sedimentary rock?
it is the result of weathering processes on earth
What rock cycle process is the opposite of crystallization of magma-?
The rock cycle is a model that describes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes.
What is the series of processes on earth's surface that changes rock called?
rock cycle
Are the forces that drive the rock cycle beneath the earth's surface the same as the forces that drive the rock cycle on or near earth's surface?
The forces that drive the rock cycle beneath the earth's surface are not the same as the forces that drive the rock cycle on or near earth's surface because the processes of the rock cycle beneath the earth surface and above the earth surface are diffferent.
What are examples of weathering and erosion?
Processes affecting the surface of the Earth and part of the Rock Cycle.
What are examples of erosion deposition and weathering?
Processes affecting the surface of the Earth and part of the Rock Cycle.
A series of processes on Earth and surface and interior that slowly changes rocks from one kind to another is called?
The rock cycle.
In addition to plate tectonics what is the other main driving force of the rock cycle?
Water flow
What is the external processes of rock cycle?
The external processes are in charge for transforming solid rock into sediment.
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
What are the 4 processes of rock cycle that change the surface of the earth?
Permafrost, submission, mantle and tectonic plate continental shelf drift
When does the rock cycle happen?
The rock cycle cause rocks to change continually from one form to another as a result of some processes that happen in nature. These processes include weathering or the breaking of rocks, erosion, compaction, cementation, melting and cooling.
What changes solid earth the most?
the rock cycle
Illustrates the processes that create and change rocks?
Rock Cycle
