Okay so let's answer now the question. So we have here the igneous rock. So the igneous rock, it was formed when lava or magma, okay when magma or lava solidified. So the solidification of the lava or magma resulted to the igneous rock. Now Igneous rock can be sedimentary rock. So this is our first answer. So igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks when the igneous rocks became um ah through weathering and through erosion became sediments. If the igneous rock became sediments and the sediments undergo the process of lit defecation then it will become sedimentary rock. The next rock is we have metamorphic rocks. So Igneous rock can be metamorphic rock if there is an igneous rock that will be subjected in intense he and pressure. So this heat and pressure will transform these the igneous rocks into metamorphic rock and the last time or the next. The next thing is the igneous rock can become big news rock again. Okay so if the igneous rocks will be molten again and then after the molten rocks or the lava or magma solidifies, then it becomes igneous rock. So basically this is our answer. So igneous rock can be a symptom entire Iraq if it becomes sediments through um weathering and erosion and through lift ification process it becomes sedimentary rocks. Next through intensity and pressure. Igneous rock will become metamorphic rock. Next the igneous rock can be another igneous rock. If the big news if the previous igneous rock will be subjected to heat and it will be melted and then after that it solidifies again then it becomes another igneous rock. So here we go. These are the answers. Thank you for listening.
