How does a metamorphic rock turn into a igneous rock?
If it finds its way dowm into the earths crust through rock cycle and then is melted and mixes together to form molten magma, it could re-erupt to the earths surface and form an extrusive igneous rock or cool and solidify within the earths crust as an intrusive igneous rock.
What powers the earth's rock cycle?
Heat from the earth's core, via the magma drives the tectonic part of the rock cycle. This heat is derived mainly from radioactive fission of the heavy elements in the Core.Gravity drives much of the weathering part of the rock cycle. Via evaporation of water, and rain and rivers, and glaciation.Some solar radiation also energizes part of the weathering part of the rock cycle.
