Rock Cycle - Woodill

Please explain to me how the rock cycle works. You need to be specific in giving different examples with the 3 different kinds of rocks. You may use your books pages E60 - E61.

The rock cycle works like this.It works like Sedimentary Rocks change by heat and pressure and then the Sedimentary Rocks turn into Metamorphic Rocks. Metamorphic rocks start by melting into magma and lava.Soon the magma and lava start cooling and crystallizing. Then they turn into Igneous Rocks. The Igneous Rocks turn into weathering.After that they turn into Sediments.Then the Sediments start compacting and cementing.After that we are back to Sedimentary Rocks. That is how the rock cycle works.

the rock cycle works like a machine metamorpic rocks melt wich be comes magma and lava when it cools and crystlize it be comes igneus rock when whearthers it turns to sediments it startes compacting and cementing wich turns to sedimenty rock heat and pressure get to it and it turns back to metamorpic rock but it dosent all happen like it can go metamopic to sediments sediments can turn to igneous.

the rock cycle goes like this. it can start out in anyway but im going to start with Igneous. Igneous comes out of a volcano and the wind may carry it into the ocean. after layer and layers it turns to a sedimentary then the sedimentary rock sinks down then goes though heat and presure and turns to metamorphic rock.last t5hing is for the rock to melt and make its way to the surface and BOOM! comes out of a vocano and a Ingeous rock is born =0

the three differant rocks are sedimentary,mediphorphic,and ingous rocks. the way the rock cycle workes are sedimentary when it hits mediphorhc it melts after it starts to melt it starts to cool and crystalliz after it is done cooling it turns in to ingous the way it turns in to ingous it goes in to weathering

This is how the rock cycle works: when the Metamorpohic Rock melts it becomes Magma and Lava. After the Magma and Lava cools and goes through crystallizing it becomes Igneous Rock. When the Igneous Rock weathers it become a sediment. Then the sediment compacts and cements and it becomes a Metamorphic Rock. That is the rock cycle and it will keep on going.

Temperture and alot of pressure can cchange any rock into a metamorphic rock. A sedimentary rock can changes into a metamorphic rock. A metamorphic rock can change into a igneous rock.

igneos gets made by the weathering the this is how sedamentry rocks are form by compacting and cementing the this is how metamorphic rocks are form by melting magam and lava

Metamorphic rock starts from a volcano.The rock changes into Igneous rock. Through weathering it changes into sediments. It compacts with different rocks into a sedimentary rock. Through heat and pressure it gets hot and changes into metamorphic rock.

the rock cycle works like this.igneos is made of magma which the sedaments of that makes a sedamentary rock.then the medamorphic sets in by making a new rock out of igneos and sedamentary rocks.

First sedimentary tern to metomorphic. Heat & pressure push
sediments together to form metomorphic rocks. Then metomorphic turn to igneous. First metomorphic shoots out of a valcano. Next it cools with lava this is called crystallizing. Now its igneous.

Igneous rocks harden, then through weathering it rubbes of into sediments.The sediments gather together at the bottom of lakes. Then the layers gather to make sedimentary rocks.The sedimentary rocks get pushed down beneath the Earth's crust, then with so much heat and pressure rocks change types of rock.For example conglomerate can change into gniess.

Heres how the rock cycle works.Metamorphics pressure and temperture below the surface comes very high,igneos magma or lava can have minrals form,sedimentary form into metamorphic from tempeture and some pressure deep below in the surface.

The rock cycle works like this first igneous rocks are broke down with pressure and heat then they turn into metamorphic rocks that are formed from the heat and turn into sedamentary rock.Sedimentary rocks have layers because of the different kind of rocks.

The rock cycle works in a wierd way. It starts as a igneos,then heat and pressure get to it turns into a metomophic rock.The rock turns into sediments.The sediments squish into a sedimentary rocks.The rock turns into lava and magma.Then it's a igneos rock again. Then all over again.

When Igneous rock weathers away itterns into sediments compactts to gether then it trns into sedimentary rock. Heat and pressure turas it into metamorphic rockthen it melts and turas into magma and lava then cools and turnas it into igneous.

The rock cycle works like this.Sedimentary rock changes by heat and pressure then changes to Metamorphic rock.Metamorphic rock starts by melting rock in to magma and lava. Then the magma and lava starts cooling and crystallizing. After that it changes to Igneos.Ignoes rocks starts weathering.

Igneous rocks through weathering break down and become sedimentaryocks. The rocks then become sediments. through compacting and cementing they become sedimentary rocks. The sedimentary rocks through heat and pressure form into metamorphic rocks. These rocks melt down because of the magma and lava and become igneous rocks.

The rock cycle works by forming into Igneous Rocks then into Sedimentary Rocks and then into Metamorphic Rocks. And then they melt into lava.

igneous rock can changes into

sedimentary rocks change into
metamorphic rocks.

This is how the rock cycle works.sedimentary rocks first form by form by heat and preassure the weather and sediments also help sedimentary rock form.metamorphic rocks have sediments it's also forms by weather.Igneous rocks are formed by heat and preassure magma and lava cool and hardens to make an igneous rock.

Rocks start in the water and form in into a rock. Metamorphic rock forms from a volcano and turns into igneous rocks. Through weathering it turns the rock into sediments. Through cementing and compacting it turns into a sedimentary rock.

the repersent magma and lava and sedimentary rock meites and it trands forms an ingneous rock thin it cools down thin it trants form anto igneous rock

Anonymous said...

The rock cycle starts with magma and lava.That turns into ignious rock it turns into sediments.Then the sediments turn into sedimentary rock.With heat and pressure it turns into metamorphic rock then it starts all over again.

igneous rock go into heat and pressure thenit goes into sedimentary rocks go into melting magma . metamorphic rocks go into weathering and then to heat and pressure then to melting.
