Weathering and eroision are the main typs of the rock cycle

Maddi T. said...

The major processes of the rock cycle are weathering & erosion, compaction and cementation, melting, cooling and heat and pressure.

Weathering and erosion and compaction compaction

Lamaara F. said...

The three processes are weathering, erosion, and sedimentation. Weathering chips the rock away, erosion carries it away, and sedimentation carries particles to a barrier.

Shaun B said...

The major processes of the rock cycle, are weathering and erosion, compacting and cementing, heat and pressure, crystallization, and melting.

Olivia M said...

The rock cycle has many processes. Here are some of the main processes in the rock cycle, weathering, metamorphism, erosion and crystallization.

Weathering, Erosion,Compaction, Cementation, Melting, Cooling and Heat and Pressure or part of the rock cycle.

Maddi T. said...

First, heat and pressure bring the rock down under the surface. Next, melting melts the rock. Third, the rocks cool down. Fourth, weathering and erosion turn it into sediment. Lastly, compaction and cementation bring the rocks together and crush them. That's the rock cycle.

Kristina W. said...

The rock cycle starts with weatering and then gets transportated by erosion the new rocks are called sediments. sedamentary rocks turn into medimorpic rocks wich then medimorpic rocks melt and turn into magma

Maddi T. said...

And it starts all over again.

The major parts of the rock cycle are weathering and erosion weathering turns big rocks into small rock(sediments) and erosion carries them away.

And weathering.

Wayne Twombly said...

There is a first start to a rock called igneous formed with magma and when it cools it turns into Crystal and after it turns onto Crystal it buts out of the volcano and hits the water and it freezes those frozen rocks SMASHES and SMASHES till it turns into small sandlike rocks and goes to the bottom of the ocean when the eater COMPACTS it into another rock making it a sedimentary rock.

Sameena F. said...

Major processes of the rock cycle are heat, pressure, compacting, cementing, crystallization, melting, cooling, weathering, and erosion!

Ian R. said...

The first part of the rock cycle is the magma coming out of the ground and cooling. Then it is weathered and eroded into smaller rocks which are compressed into sedimentary rock. That rock is then taken under the surface by the plates and turned into magma. It then begins again.

Richie P. said...

Igneous, crystallization, metamorphous, weathering, climate, ect.

DYLAN N said...

Erosion and weathering is how it happens

like metamorphic,sedimentary, and igneous rocks.

erosion, sedimentation,metamorphis

Lava cools to make igneous rock. Cementation creates Sedimentary rock. Heat and Pressure creates metamorphic rock.

lava cools and makes igneous rock,cementation creates sedimentary rock, and heat and pressure create metamorphic rock. there is also consolidation which i'm not sure what that does.

it is weathering,metamorphism,consolidation,lifithication,erosion

Logan H. said...

I'll name the steps. First, the rock melts. 2nd, the rock cools down. 3rd, the rock gathers sediment. Last, the rock gets weathered, and turns to sand.

Weathering, solidification.

lava cool igneous rock forms, cyistalleion then it sediments then turn into sedimentry rock then heats and becomes metamorphic

your not funny

darren said...

rocks come up from the ground then fall down into the water and setlel in the dirt and then they go back up to where they started

Camden, S said...

metamorphic rock melts into magma, it cools and creates igneous rock. Igneous rock weathers and erodes into sediment, sediment compacts and cements into sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rock heats and pressurizes back into metamorphic rock, and the cycle repeats.
