The process by which an igneous rock changes to a sedimentary rock in the rock cycle begins with weathering and erosion of the igneous rock, breaking it down into sediments. These sediments are then transported and deposited, where they are compacted and cemented together to form a sedimentary rock over time.
The type of rock that likely formed first to initiate the rock cycle is igneous rock.
A metamorphic rock can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Or, a sedimentary rock (or sediments) can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Also, an igneous rock itself can undergo this process of melting and cooling as well.
Yes, it can. However, an igneous rock can change to a metamorphic rock skipping sedimentary: the tectonic plates can push igneous rock deep into the ground, forming metamorphic rock. Sedimentary can form metamorphic, metamorphic can form magma or lava by melting and/or erupting and then turn into igneous. Igneous forms sedimentary with erosion, deposition compaction, and cementation.
The two processes in the rock cycle that must occur in order to change any rock into an igneous rock are melting (to form magma) and solidification (to form igneous rock). Melting of existing rocks due to high temperatures or pressure creates molten magma, which can then cool and solidify to form new igneous rocks.
Three (3) rocks in the rock cycle are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rock.
For most purposes there is no "beginning" to the rock cycle. Any rock can be weathered away and remade into sedimentary rock. Igneous rocks are sometimes depicted as the start of the rock cycle because the first rocks on Earth were igneous.
Igneous rock can weather and become sedimentary rock . Metamorphic rock can be melted in a volcano and become igneous rock. Igneous rock and sedimentary rock can be heated and pressurized to form metamorphic rock.
sedimentary rock
Sedimentary rocks can change to igneous rock when it goes through the rock cycle so a sediment can move to igneous rock where there is a volcanic activity happens making the the sediment get heat and pressure that makes igneous rock.So when you do the rock cycle you can go from igneous rock to a metamorphic rock.
Melting.
yes it erodes
