Question

According to the rock cycle, Choose one: A. all rocks in the Earth's crust will, at some point, be subducted and melted to create igneous rock. B. uplift, weathering, burial, and heating/melting can transform one rock type into another. C. Earth materials cannot change from one type to another. D. the Earth is a static, unchanging system.

Answer 1

B. uplift, weathering, burial, and heating/melting can transform one rock type into another.

Step-by-step explanation:

• According to the rock cycle, there are three main types of rocks as the primary igneous and the secondary as metamorphic and the sedimentary rocks and all theses rocks undergo changes and transform into one another through the process of the crystallization, and metamorphism, and the erosion and sedimentation and is what is known as the rocks cycle.

• The igneous rocks when eroded and deposited as sedimentary get Lithification and compacted and changes into the sedimentary rocks and them upon heat and accumulated pressure transforms into the metamorphic rocks and which later melt and there firming the igneous rocks again.
