Answer:

B. Temperature, pressure, weathering, erosion

Step-by-step explanation:

Although rocks seems so strong but they can be forced to change when their environmental conditions change. Weathering, cooling, melting, erosion, temperature, pressure, compaction, cementation are the factors that affect the formation and breakdown of rocks. There are mainly three types of rocks sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic. A rock can transform into another by passing through crystallization, metamorphism, erosion and sedimentation which creates the rock cycle.
