Sagot :

Answer:

1. Forces such as extreme pressure and high temperatures for long periods of time changes sedimentary rocks to a metamorphic rock.

2. Molten rock is formed through the high temperatures within the earth. When these rocks cool and hardens, an igneous rock is formed.

3. Sediments are formed when rocks undergo sedimentation.

4. An example of an igneous rock is basalt.

An example of a sedimentary rock is sandstone.

An example of a metamorphic rock is a marble.

5. The rock cycle is referred to as a cycle because it is a continuous process of circulation. Often igneous rocks come from molten metamorphic rocks and it eventually reaches a land of water then becomes a sedimentary and then goes deep into the earth then turns into a metamorphic rock
