Answer:

The correct answer is "Earth’s internal heat engine and the hydrological cycle".

Step-by-step explanation:

The rock cycle is a geological process that describes the movements and transitions that sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks going trough. The rock cycle is driving by two main forces: Earth’s internal heat engine and the hydrological cycle. The Earth’s internal heat engine move the inner rocks of Earth from the core to the mantle and viceversa; while the hydrological cycle describes the movement of water, which also have a direct impact on rocks formation and movement.
