At point R, rocks melt underground to form magma. Which is another process that contributes to the formation of rock at point R?


compacting of sediments on the mountain

cooling as the lava runs down the mountain

weathering of the mountain from the environment

eroding of different rocks at the base of the mountain

Answer 1

The answer is cooling as the lava runs down the mountain.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test on Edge 2020 and got the answer right.

Answer 2

Option B: cooling as the lava runs down the mountain

Step-by-step explanation:

The point R is basically at near the Earth's surface.

Now, we are told that rocks melt underground to form magma. This is a process of formation of igneous rocks. So, in formation of igneous rocks another process that will contribute to formation of rocks at point R is named cooling.

Cooling is a process where the larva runs down the mountain that makes magma hardened and makes it it turn into igneous rock.
