Rocks are formed through the process of rock cycle, which includes weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation of sediments. These processes can lead to the formation of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. Rocks are continuously cycled in nature through the processes of erosion, transport, deposition, and heat and pressure from tectonic forces, which reshapes them into different types of rocks over time.
No, not all inorganic rocks are formed from other rocks. Some inorganic rocks, such as igneous rocks, are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten materials like lava or magma. These rocks do not necessarily originate from pre-existing rocks.
Rocks formed from sand, rocks, and shells are known as sedimentary rocks. Sandstones, mudstones, and limestone are common examples of sedimentary rocks that can be formed from these materials.
no not all rocks are formed by volcanoes because what about sedimentary rocks which are the rocks formed over a long period of time by little pieces of sand and rock etc. by wind and water
Solid rocks
No, rocks are not formed when magma erodes. Rocks are typically formed when magma cools and solidifies underground or on the Earth's surface. Erosion is the wearing away of rocks and minerals by wind, water, or ice over time.
The three main types of rocks found in nature are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten rock, sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of sediments, and metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.

Both B and C
Metamorphic rocks are naturally formed. they are formed from natural changes that happen to other rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the earths surface when sediments hardens into rocks :]
Rocks formed from broken rocks are known as sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments, which can include fragments of other rocks, minerals, and organic material. Common examples of sedimentary rocks formed from broken rocks include sandstone, conglomerate, and shale.
Rocks formed from sand, rocks, and shells are known as sedimentary rocks. Sandstones, mudstones, and limestone are common examples of sedimentary rocks that can be formed from these materials.
Minerals are formed first then rocks
Extrusive igneous rocks are one type of rocks that can be formed above the ground. Sedimentary rocks can also be formed above the ground.
the sedamentic rocks formed on the gradual accumulation of sediments.
Metamorphic rocks are naturally formed. they are formed from natural changes that happen to other rocks.
Sandstone rocks are formed from sedimentary rocks. It is when sedimentary rocks are broke down into small pieces.
