What else can I help you with?
Describe an alternate pathway within a rock cycle?
one starts at igneous rock and goes through metamorphism and becomes a metamorphic rock.another is a sedimentary rock goes through meltingand becomes magma
True or False Each major group of rocks follows one pathway in the rock cycle?
False. The rock cycle involves interactions between three main types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic - and these rocks can transform back and forth between each other through various processes. Each rock type does not follow a single pathway in the cycle.
If sedimentary rock becomes molten what type of rock will be formed?
If sedimentary rock becomes molten due to extreme heat and pressure, it will transform into magma. Once this magma cools and solidifies, it will form igneous rock. This process is part of the rock cycle, illustrating how different rock types can transition into one another through various geological processes.
What is metabolic pathway in plants that consumes oxygen and produces carbon dioxide?
Through Crebs' cycle in aerobic respiration
How could a sedimentary rock provide evidence that a rock cycle exists?
The Rock cycle is a process whereby all types of rock are formed then eroded and "recycled" through different depositional processes. Sedimentary rocks can provide evidence that the rock cycle exists by looking at it under a microscope. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the lithification of grains of different sizes shapes and compositions. By detemining the compositions of the grains within a sedimentary rock through a petrographic microscope or through a scanning electron microscope (SEM) then it can be seen that some grains are composed of minerals that are solely igneous in origin. Likewise, sedimentary rocks can be metamorphosed to form meta-sediments.

Which major group or groups of rocks are involved in the description of pathway 2?
Pathway 2 includes the major groups of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and consolidation of sediments, while metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks through heat and pressure. Both of these rock types are commonly involved in the rock cycle and can contribute to the formation of other rock types.
True or False Each major group of rocks follows one pathway in the rock cycle?
False. The rock cycle involves interactions between three main types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic - and these rocks can transform back and forth between each other through various processes. Each rock type does not follow a single pathway in the cycle.
Why wont sedimentary rocks ever be the only type of rock?
Because a sedimentary rock goes through the rock cycle.
Does the rock cycle have to start from the sedimentary rock?
No, the rock cycle does not have to start from the sedimentary rock
The Krebs cycle is an example of which type of metabolic pathway?
The Krebs cycle is an example of an aerobic metabolic pathway, as it requires oxygen to function efficiently.
What is before metamorphic rock in the rock cycle?
Sedimentary Rock which becomes heated and pressed and Igneous Rock which is also heated and compressed.
Do sedimentary rocks change?
Yes they change as they go through different levels of the rock cycle
What is metabolic pathway in plants that consumes oxygen and produces carbon dioxide?
Through Crebs' cycle in aerobic respiration
A pathway by which a chemical element or molecule moves through both biotic and abiotic compartments of an ecosystem?
The pathway you're referring to is known as a biogeochemical cycle. In these cycles, elements or molecules move through living organisms (biotic components) and the non-living environment (abiotic components), such as the atmosphere, soil, and water. Examples include the carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, and water cycle.
The carbon dioxide cycle is the pathway in which carbon dioxide and oxygen move through the environment?
no because its online somewhere else
Is it possible for rocks in the rock cycle to skip becoming sedimentary rock?
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.
