According to the rock cycle what transitions are possible?
According to the rock cycle, there are three main classifications of rocks. Igneous rocks form when molten rock cools to a solid state; sedimentary rocks form when sediments are compressed together or hardened, or when crystals form from aqueous solutions; metamorphic rocks are rocks that are changed from one form to another by extreme heat or pressure.
Are all the rocks on the seafloor aligned according to the same magnetic field orientation?
No, rocks on the seafloor do not all align according to the same magnetic field orientation. The Earth's magnetic field has shifted over time, causing rocks to record different orientations depending on when they formed. This creates magnetic anomalies that scientists use to study the history of the Earth's magnetic field.
