Rock is continually recycled into new forms of rock by the processes of weathering, erosion and lithification, melting and solidification, or by pressure and/or heat causing recrystallization and changes in mineralization.
What else can I help you with?
How can rocks change from one type to another?
metamorphism: reaching the parent rock's threshold for either temperature and/or pressure causes a change in the rock facies.
Can a rock chang to a type of rock to another?
rocks can change from one type of rock to another, or not change at all
Can rocks from one from one type to another?
metamorphism: reaching the parent rock's threshold for either temperature and/or pressure causes a change in the rock facies.
What is the process called when rocks change to another type?
The process is referred to as metamorphism.
What is it called when rocks continually change from one type to another?
The rock cycle
Which type of weathering causes the mineral composition of rocks to change?
Chemical weathering is the type of weathering that causes the mineral composition of rocks to change. This process occurs when minerals in rocks react with elements in the environment, causing a chemical reaction that alters the rock's mineral composition over time.
What type of rocks change into metamorphic rocks?
Ignitous rocks
What causes rocks to change from one type to another?
Rock is continually recycled into new forms of rock by the processes of weathering, erosion and lithification, melting and solidification, or by pressure and/or heat causing recrystallization and changes in mineralization.
How rocks change form is known as the what?
The process through which rocks change form is known as the rock cycle. It involves the transformation of rocks from one type to another over long periods of time through processes such as weathering, erosion, and metamorphism.
Can rocks change from one one kind to another kind any order?
Yes, rocks can change from one kind to another through processes like metamorphism (changing due to heat and pressure) or weathering (breaking down into smaller particles). The rock cycle illustrates how rocks can continuously change from one type to another in any order.
What rocks change from one type to another over a million years?
i don't know but look in wikipidie to see your answer
What causes rocks to pull apart?
The type of stress that causes rocks to pull apart is a tension stress. It is the major type of stress found in divergent plate boundaries.
