When magma is cooled and hardened, it is an igneous rock. That being said, there's only three left and those three are the three types of rocks. Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary.

In order to form magma what must happen to sedimentary metamorphic or igneous rocks?
Heat must melt the sedimentary,metamorphic,or igneous and it will turn to magma
Name the 3 kinds of rocks?
There are three major types of rock: igneous (formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava) sedimentary (laid down as sediments) and metamorphic (changed by heat and/or pressure)
Does a rock go through the complete rock cycle by changing from igneous rock to sedimentary to metamorphic?
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.
What process changes a sedimentary rock into an igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock can change intometamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rockcan change into igneous or sedimentary rock. Igneous rock forms when magma cools and makes crystals. Magma is a hot liquid made of melted minerals.
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

Is granite metamorphic sedimentary or igneous?
igneous. Made from slowly cooling magma. :)
Can igneous rock and sedimentary rock and metamorphic rock turn into magma?
no it can't
When magma cools and hardens does it form igneous rock sedimentary rock or metamorphic rock?
igneous rock.
Is Wave rock Sedimentary Igneous or Metamorphic?
Igneous it is Magma that was cooled underground-intrusive
What are the three types of rock and their formation?
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
Name the three major groups of rocks and describe how each forms?
The three groups are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. igneous forms when magma or lava cools down. sedimentary forms when sediments (clay, sand, silt etc) gets compressed. and metamorphic forms when an igneous or sedimentary goes under very high temperatures and pressure

What are the kinds of rocks?
All rocks are solid. Igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.
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
