ignious comes from volcanoes molten lava and sedimentary comes from sand getting squezed together usually underwater (ocean, lake, etc.)
Igneous, metamorphic, and existing sedimentary rocks can weather and erode to form sedimentary rocks. Igneous and metamorphic rocks can break down into sediments through processes like weathering and erosion, which then may accumulate and lithify into sedimentary rocks. Existing sedimentary rocks can also be reworked and lithified to form new sedimentary rocks through processes like compaction and cementation.
Igneous rocks are made from molten lava. Then they become solid like a rock. There are two types of igneous rock. Intrusive and extrusive.Intrusive means the rock was made from inside the Earth by lava. Extrusive rocks are form by the on the Earth by hard molten lava. Sedimentary rocks are form by bodies of water within the Earths Crust . Metamorphic rocks are form by dead animals and plants together in a rock.

Igneous rocks can transform into sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion, which breaks down the igneous rock into sediments that are then compacted and cemented together. Igneous rocks can also undergo metamorphism due to heat and pressure, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks can also melt and be recrystallized to form new igneous rocks through cooling and solidification.
Sedimentary rocks make up about 75% of Earth's crust by volume, while igneous rocks make up about 15-20%. Sedimentary rocks form through processes like erosion, deposition, and cementation, while igneous rocks form from the cooling of molten magma.
Rocks such as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic are related in the Earth system through the rock cycle. Igneous rocks form from cooled magma, sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of sediments, and metamorphic rocks are created through the alteration of existing rocks under heat and pressure. These rocks continually change from one type to another through processes like erosion, deposition, melting, and recrystallization.
Igneous rocks are typically older than sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of molten material (magma or lava), which usually happens before the formation of sedimentary rocks through processes like erosion, deposition, and compaction.
The Earth's crust is primarily made up of igneous rocks such as basalt and granite, as well as sedimentary rocks like sandstone and limestone. Metamorphic rocks, which are formed from other rock types through heat and pressure, are also found in the Earth's crust.
Igneous, sedimentaty and metamorphic are all types of rocks. You would just write sentences to describe each, like "Igneous rocks come from volcanoes" and "Sedimentary rocks come from sediment."
what type of rock is agate
Sedimentary rocks are not directly derived from igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of sediments, such as sand, mud, and organic material, through processes like erosion, deposition, and lithification. Igneous rocks, on the other hand, are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
Igneous, metamorphic, and existing sedimentary rocks can weather and erode to form sedimentary rocks. Igneous and metamorphic rocks can break down into sediments through processes like weathering and erosion, which then may accumulate and lithify into sedimentary rocks. Existing sedimentary rocks can also be reworked and lithified to form new sedimentary rocks through processes like compaction and cementation.
Igneous rocks are made from molten lava. Then they become solid like a rock. There are two types of igneous rock. Intrusive and extrusive.Intrusive means the rock was made from inside the Earth by lava. Extrusive rocks are form by the on the Earth by hard molten lava. Sedimentary rocks are form by bodies of water within the Earths Crust . Metamorphic rocks are form by dead animals and plants together in a rock.
Crystals can form in all three types of rocks. Igneous rocks, like granite, form from the cooling and solidification of magma. Sedimentary rocks, such as limestone, can contain crystals that formed from precipitation of minerals in water. Metamorphic rocks, like marble, can have crystals that grew under extreme heat and pressure.
