New rocks are formed, Igneous Rock, Sedimentary Rock, and Metamorphic Rock. It will take over a million years to complete the rock cycle, then it will start all over again.
For most purposes there is no "beginning" to the rock cycle. Any rock can be weathered away and remade into sedimentary rock. Igneous rocks are sometimes depicted as the start of the rock cycle because the first rocks on Earth were igneous.
The rock cycle has to start at least with igneous rocks, some of which will be eruptive. We may assume that any 'sedimentary' rocks that arrived as meteors have all been metamorphosed, though there are counter instances. For example the Sudbury Meteor and mineral complex. (Canada).
ANSWER: 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.
No, the rock cycle does not have to start from the sedimentary rock
how in i supposed to know

The rock cycle and water cycle both are natural.
It is called the Rock Cycle.
there is no beginning or end of the rock cycle
The Rock Cycle contributes to the formation of rocks : ~ )
ANSWER: rock cycle
No Rock Comes First... its a cycle
The rock cycle is a series of processes on Earth's surface and in the crust and mantle that slowly change rocks from one kind to another.Plate movements start the rock cycle by helping to form magma, the source of igneous rocks. Plate movements also cause faulting, folding, and other motions of the crust that help to form sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
