Sure. They can be broken down to form sand. Under intense heat and pressure, they can change to metamorphic rock.
When you look at a rock and see different colors, those colors are minerals .The pressure and heat causes the minerals in the rock to change into different minerals which cause the different colors in the rocks.
Minerals Make up rocks, Which make up the layers of the Earth(Crust, Lithosphere, asthenosphere, and Mantle)(Minerals make up the inner and outter core). The layers of the earth(crust) make up plate tectonics; convection currents and Plates(made of rock)
Cleavage is the splitting of rocks or minerals along defined surfaces.
Schist comes from shale. It is laminated , flaky, and found in parallel layers. The minerals in this rocks that have crystallized from the parent rock are visible.
Most rocks do but there are some exceptions. Coal (such as bituminous coal) is composed of organic material but is considered a sedimentary rock. Glassy rocks such as obsidian or pumice cool too quickly to contain crystals.
Minerals and rocks do change. In fact they change everyday, but it takes hundreds and millions of years till it's noticible.
They can change into coal

Yes, but (usually) slowly.
all rocks are made of minerals
Rocks contain minerals in them and minerals are just the minerals themselves.
sometimes it does. in my science book it says the minerals MAY change.
Most igneous rocks have a relatively homogenous mix of minerals which are interlocked.
No, you cannot bleach rocks to change their color or appearance. Bleaching is a process that is typically used on fabrics or hair to remove color, but it is not effective on rocks. Rocks are made up of minerals and their color is determined by the composition of those minerals, which cannot be altered by bleaching.

No, rocks are at least two kinds of minerals.
