The process of weathering and erosion can occur relatively quickly in the rock cycle. This involves the breaking down and transportation of rock materials by natural forces such as water, wind, and ice.
Without a specific diagram or context for "part of the rock cycle labeled E," I can provide a general answer. In the rock cycle, processes that might occur in a designated part could include weathering and erosion, which break down existing rocks into sediments. These sediments can then be transported and deposited, leading to lithification and the formation of sedimentary rocks. Additionally, if the area involves heat and pressure, metamorphism could occur, transforming existing rocks into metamorphic forms.
Yes. It's all part of the rock cycle.
An example that is not part of the rock cycle would be a volcanic eruption, where molten rock (magma) is expelled from Earth's interior onto its surface. This event is a singular occurrence and does not illustrate the continuous processes of rock formation, transformation, and recycling that make up the rock cycle.
Shortcuts in the rock cycle are known as nonconformities. These are breaks in the rock record where younger sedimentary rock layers are deposited on top of older igneous or metamorphic rocks. This can occur due to erosion or tectonic processes.
There Would No longer Be a Rock Cycle :(

All parts of the rock cycle process occur naturally. Rocks are constantly being formed, weathered, eroded, and transformed through processes like sedimentation, heat, and pressure. The rock cycle is driven by Earth's internal heat and external processes like weathering and erosion.

They all are part of the rock cycle
compaction and cementation are the only parts of the rock cycle that cannot be observed.
In Death Valley, stages of the rock cycle that are apparent are stages in which the rock is a rock. once it becomes sand, it is part of the sandusky 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.
