What type of rock comes first in the rock cycle?
No Rock Comes First... its a cycle
What rock comes from quartzite in the rock cycle?
Quartzite comes under the metamorphic section of rocks.
How and why is the rock cycle called a cycle?
a rock cycle is known as a " rock cycle " because the wheel of a bicycle spins at a total 360 degrees and therefore never has an interfierence to when it comes to an end. SO the word cycle was given to a rock cycle because the prosedure never ends.
What is the time line of a rock cycle?
The rock cycle is a continuous process where rocks are formed, broken down, and reformed over millions of years. It involves processes such as weathering, erosion, deposition, heat, and pressure that can take millions to billions of years to complete. There is no specific timeline for the rock cycle as it is ongoing and dynamic.
Is the rock cycle like the water cycle?
no the water cycle is that water evaporates and comes back down some of it even goes into the earth
What rocks comes before quartzite in the rock cycle?
Quartzite is sandstone (sedimentary rock) that has metamorphosed from heat and pressure.
All energy that drives earth's rock cycle comes from?
The energy that drives Earth's rock cycle comes from the Earth's internal heat, which originates from the decay of radioactive isotopes in the Earth's core and mantle. This heat causes convection currents in the mantle, leading to plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and the movement of rocks through the rock cycle.
What does a rock cycle look like?
The rock cycle is a process of formation and transformation of rocks. The first stage is the molten lava that comes out of a volcano. The next stages include transformation or metamorphosis of rocks.
What is the secound step of a rock cycle?
The second step of the rock cycle is typically erosion and transportation, where weathering and other natural forces break down rocks into smaller pieces that are moved by water, wind, or ice to new locations. This process helps to redistribute the broken-down rock material and can lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks.
What rock comes after granite Is subjected to enough heat and pressure in the rock cycle?
When granite is subjected to enough heat and pressure, it becomes a metamorphic rock called gneiss.
What does deposition means in the rock cycle?
The process in which sediment moved y erosin is dropped and comes to rest
Does the rock cycle have to start from the sedimentary rock?
No, the rock cycle does not have to start from the sedimentary rock
