Maturity stage.
Weathering can happen to any rock. It is the first stage in the process that leads to the formation of sedimentary rock.
== == The age of a sedimentary rock formation can be estimated by comparing it to radiometrically dated rock formations that contain the same fossil organisms. Geologic time categories have been identified according to the radiometric dating of fossils and the fact that they appear only in certain time periods. Therefore, if you look at a rock formation and find a trilobite fossil that has been identified by previous dating techniques as Cambrian, you can be fairly certain that the formation you are looking at is also Cambrian.
It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.

Both gneiss and migmatite are late-stage, high grade metamorphic rocks.
Yes, rocks can skip the sedimentary stage in the rock cycle by transforming directly from one type of rock to another through processes like metamorphism or melting and solidification. This can happen when rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures that alter their composition and characteristics without going through the sedimentary stage of being weathered, eroded, and deposited.
Rocks in the rock cycle are classified into three main types: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed from cooling magma or lava, sedimentary rocks are formed from compressed sediments, and metamorphic rocks are formed from existing rocks that undergo heat and pressure changes. These three types of rocks interconnect and transform into one another through various geological processes in the rock cycle.
Yes, it is possible for rocks in the rock cycle to skip becoming sedimentary rock. Rocks can undergo processes such as metamorphism or melting to transform directly into igneous or metamorphic rocks without passing through a sedimentary stage.
Pegmatite is an igneous rock that forms in the final stage of magma crystallization. It typically contains large crystals due to the slow cooling of the magma.
To create a 3D model of the rock cycle, you can use different colored playdough or clay to represent the different types of rocks (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic). Start by shaping magma into igneous rocks, then show the process of weathering and erosion to form sedimentary rocks, and finally demonstrate heat and pressure to transform them into metamorphic rocks. Label each stage to explain the rock cycle as you go along.
Marble is a metamorphic rock, which means it has undergone transformation from its original rock form through heat and pressure. In the rock cycle, marble is currently in the metamorphic rock stage.
This statement is incorrect because igneous rock can also transform into metamorphic rock through heat and pressure without going through the sedimentary rock stage. The rock cycle is a continuous process, and rocks can change directly from one type to another, depending on the conditions they are exposed to.
what is the common stage between acid rain and water cycle
First a rock gets erupted within or on the Earth surface in the form of igneous rocks. Those are over time eroded away and deposited as sedimentary rocks. By subjecting these rocks to tremendous pressure and heat they metamorphose or change into metamorphic rocks which can eventually wind up in molten state and get re-introduced and erupt back as igneous rocks.
