he rock cycle is the name for the processes that forms and recycles the different types or rocks on our planet. Rocks begin the cycle as igneous rocks, erode into sedimentary rocks then change into metamorphic rocks, finally the rocks melt back to magma and start the process again.
There are three main types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Each of these types of rocks are formed in different ways and each type of rock can be changed into each of the other types of rock. Geologists call this process the Rock Cycle. Essentially the rock cycle is the process that makes and recycles rocks.
Most rocks on earth began as igneous rocks. Let's trace a possible rock cycle for newly formed igneous rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from magma. Magma cools and solidifies into rock. When igneous rocks are exposed on the surface, time and weather break the rock down into smaller and smaller pieces. This process is called weathering and erosion. Wind and water carry the smaller pieces of igneous rocks into piles called sediment beds. Over time the sediment beds get buried and the pieces of rock become cemented together to form a new type of rock called a sedimentary rock. Our igneous rock has turned into a sedimentary rock. If our sedimentary rock is exposed at the surface, it can be eroded away and eventually changed into new sedimentary rock. However, if our sedimentary rock gets buried deep in the Earth, heat and pressure essentially bake the rock, changing it into something new. This process is called metamorphosis, and the new rock is called a metamorphic rock. Metamorphosis can happen to igneous rocks as well.
Metamorphic rocks can also be weathered and eroded and eventually changed into sedimentary rocks. Or, if metamorphic rock is forced deeper into the Earth, the rock can melt and become magma. If the magma cools and hardens it will form into igneous rock. Igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks can also be forced deep into the earth and melt into magma. Once magma cools it forms igneous rocks.

The rock cycle is the name for the processes that forms the different types or rocks. Rocks begin in the cycle as the Igneous rocks, they than erode into sedimentary rocks and change into metamorphic rocks, next the rocks melt back to magma and start all over again.
The the main process of the rock cycle is weathering that turns one type of rock and makes it into another type of rock like sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.
The rock cycle is the process that makes and recycles rocks. This cycle includes metamorphic igneous and sedimentary rocks that are formed in different ways and one type of rock can form into another using any one of these processes. weathering and erosion, crystallization of magma, and compacted and cemented .

The Rock cycle has three main types of rocks, Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sedimentary. The processes include weathering, erosion, melting, cementing, ect.
The rock major processes of the rock cycle is weathering, and erosion. These can make igneous rocks, be weathered, and made into sedimentary, then due to cementing and compacting, will make sedimentary rock, and then it can also make metamorphic rocks. (Metamorphic rocks are made form other rocks)

Like most Earth materials, rocks are created and destroyed in cycles. The rock cycle is a model that describes the formation, breakdown, and reformation of a rock as a result of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic processes. All rocks are made up of minerals. A mineral is defined as a naturally occurring, crystalline solid of definite chemical composition and a characteristic crystal structure. A rock is any naturally formed, nonliving, firm, and coherent aggregate mass of solid matter that constitutes part of a planet.

The rock cycle is the natural process in which rocks transform from one rock type into another rock type over time, a type of natural recycling.
The rock cycle is the process of bigger rocks get smaller and smaller over time with help from erosion, and weathering
Changes over time and changes the rock and keeps on for years and years.

The rock cycle is a process when rocks become one type of rock to a diffirent
