Sedimentary rocks get transformed into metamorphic and eventually igneous rocks in deep earth's crust.
Volcano or shield volcano.
igneous rocks
Sedimentary.
It should be magma is the hottest because it is usually molten rock that has not reached the surface during an eruption.Lava is 2nd hottest. It is the molten rock we see when a crack in the crust of the earth or a volcano eruption allows molten rock from beneath the crust to come up.
Sedimentary Rocks. 75% of rocks exposed to the surface are sedimentary.

Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.

Just to say: This question refers to rock groups. Not what type of rock.Igneous rocks make up most of the earth's crust.
The most common type of rock found at the Earth's surface and in the Earth's crust are sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments such as sand, mud, and organic debris. Sedimentary rocks cover about 75% of the Earth's surface.
Of all the rock on Earth's surface, 75% is sedimentary rock. But, sedimentary rock is only about 5% of the whole crust. Unlike igneous rock, which forms underground, sedimentary rock forms from materials at Earth's surface. Which this means that sedimentary rocks are more likely to be seen on the surface. Hope this helps :)
Sedimentary rock covers much of the Earth's crust.
Physical samples of rock extracted (taken) from deep within Earths crust.

Igneous and metamorphic rock make up 95% of the rocks in Earth's crust. Only a thin layer is made up of sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock; this is because the earth is constantly going through the rock cycle and both igneous rock and metamorphic rock have a lot to deal with under the earths surface and sedimentary rocks doesn't it just builds and builds over time which creates 75% of rock the covers the earth surface.
