Answer 1

The statement "Rocks change from one type to another" correctly describes a feature of the rock cycle. The rock cycle is a continuous process of transformation in which rocks are constantly changing from one type to another over time, through various geological processes such as weathering, erosion, melting, cooling, and solidification. This process involves the transformation of different types of rocks, including igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, into other types, which can then be further transformed. The rock cycle does not follow a specific order and different rock groups are related to one another through the processes of the cycle.
