What in no more than three sentences can you explain the rock cycle?
Igneous rock can change into sedimentary rock or into metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can change into igneous or sedimentary rock.
Illustrates the processes that create and change rocks?
Rock Cycle
Is it possible for rocks to skip sedimentary in the rock cycle?
Yes a rock can change from metamorphic to igneous back to metamorphic the rock cycle does not go in order unless magma cools into igneous and sediment changes into sedimentary rock
The rock cycle is a continuos procesa that change materials found?
Lava to indicate the materials involved in the rock cycle. The continuous processes that cause rocks to change make up the rock cycle.
Name 4 processes that change rock inside the earth?
Extreme heat, extreme pressure (both for metamorphic), cooling of magma (intrusive igneous rock), and melting of rock (magma that can then become igneous, and further down the "rock cycle road", metamorphic)
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks?
The rock cycle
The relationship among igneous... metamorphic... and sedimentary rocks and the processes that form them are shown by the WHAT?
The rock cycle.
What factors and processes can affect the pathway that igneous rock takes in the rock cycle?
Melting and cooling
What processes are involved in this change of the rock cycle?
New rocks are formed, Igneous Rock, Sedimentary Rock, and Metamorphic Rock. It will take over a million years to complete the rock cycle, then it will start all over again.
How can a igneous rocks change into a 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.
What in no more than three sentences can you explain the rock cycle?
Igneous rock can change into sedimentary rock or into metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can change into igneous or sedimentary rock.
Illustrates the processes that create and change rocks?
Rock Cycle
What are the steps to rock cycle?
A rock cycle starts off as magma. Then as the magma cools, crystals form, and eventually the magma solidify into igneous rocks. The process breaks down into sedimentary rocks. The processes change a pre-existing igneous or sedimentary rock into a new rock called metamorphic rocks, then it melts into magma and the process starts all over.
Do rocks change into different rock in the rock cycle?
yes, rocks change. metamorphic, sedimantary and igneous rocks can change into eachother.
What does cycle mean?
Cycle refers to a series of events or processes that repeat in a regular sequence. It can also refer to a period of time in which such a series occurs, such as a day-night cycle or a menstrual cycle. Cycling can also refer to the activity of riding a bicycle.
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
What rock cycle process is the opposite of crystallization of magma-?
The rock cycle is a model that describes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes.
