What in no more than three sentences can you explain the rock cycle?
Igneous rock can change into sedimentary rock or into metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can change into igneous or sedimentary rock.
What process changes a sedimentary rock into an igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock can change intometamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rockcan change into igneous or sedimentary rock. Igneous rock forms when magma cools and makes crystals. Magma is a hot liquid made of melted minerals.
How does Sedimentary rocks change to igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
What processes can transform igneous rocks into sedimentary rock?
In order for an igneous rock to be changed to a sedimentary rock the rock must be weathered down into, well, some form of sediment (sand, gravel, ect.) and then have pressure applied to it to become a sedimentary rock.
What starts the change from an igneous rock to a sedimentary rock?
By heatpreasure and granite
Who processes change into sedimentary rock into igneous rock?
Heating and cooling-apex
What processes can change sedimentary rock into igneous. rock?
Weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks?
The rock cycle
What two geological processes are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock?
The geological processes, that are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock are; weathering, erosion, deposition and compaction.
What in no more than three sentences can you explain the rock cycle?
Igneous rock can change into sedimentary rock or into metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can change into igneous or sedimentary rock.
Can high pressure can change an igneous rock into a sedimentary rock?
No, high pressure alone cannot change an igneous rock into sedimentary rock; however, the reverse is true. High pressure can change sedimentary rock into igneous rock.
What are the processes of rock cycles?
Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Sedimentary Rock
How can an Igneous rock change?
An igneous rock, just like any other rock, can be changed through metamorphic, igneous, and/or sedimentary processes. When exposed to high temp. and pressure, igneous becomes metamorphic. When re-melted, it becomes igneous again. When weathered/eroded, it becomes sedimentary.

What are the processes of the major rocks?
Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Sedimentary Rock
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rock to sedimentary rocks?
Denudation, Weathering, Erosion, Diagnesis.
