We have been studying the rock cycle on planet Earth. Do you think rock cycles on other planets in our solar system? Choose a planet in our solar system and tell why you think that planet may or may not have a rock cycle. Please use evidence to support your claim and site your sources.

I think the moon would have have a rock cycle. Because the moon is mainly made of rock.
I think Mars has a rock cycle because it has been found that it had water at one point so water erosion could have accrued at a point and time. There is wind on Mars so wind erosion could happen.
mars might have a rock cycle because it has been found that there had been water at one point in time
Saturn for example does have a rock cycle because the rings around the planet are made of rock and ice and to form the rocks and ice it would have a rock cycle.

I think that there is a rock cycle on many planets in our solar system. I think that on Mars there is a rock cycle because mars is like another earth so there would be a rock cycle on it.
I think that Jupiter has a rock cycle because they have volcanos and they would cool down just like on earth. Jupiter rocks most likely will break down by falling off of something and breaking into sediment and with pressure sediment turns into sedimentary.

I think there is a rock cycle in other planets rather than just Earth. I think Mars has a rock cycle because, it's very rocky on mars and there is also some little volcanoes including Olympus mons.
Earth definitely does. Possibly Venus and Mars have (or have had) a rock cycle of some sort, too. However, Venus and Mars lack liquid water and tectonic plates, which are important in Earth's rock cycle. http://www.answers.com/Q/What_planets_have_a_rock_cycle
I chose Jupiter. Jupiter would not have a rock cycle, because it is made up of mostly gas, but it has rocky moons that can be investigated. There may be a gas cycle that Jupiter undergoes, though.

to wach the video copy and paste.
Air and water erode rocks into sediments. Earth's mantle heats buried rocks to make metamorphic rocks. Continents collide and raise mountains for water and air to erode. The planets closest to the Sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are rocky; they will most likely show evidence of a rock cycle.

Venus and Mars might have the rock cycle but their cores are solidified so maybe not.
Some planets can have a rock cycle like earth, but if we were gonna talk for instance neptune. Neptune is gas because it is one of the gas giants like jupiter. Neptune is mostly made of ice. So that means there are no rocks on neptune, so neptune dose not have a rocks on it so there is no rock cycle, but there could be rock cycles on other plants.
When the cores are solidified there is no geological activity.
some planets will have a rock cycle , but Jupiter is made of gas and stuff.
Some
I think there is a rock cycle on Neptune because the color of Neptune just makes me think rocks and the planet Neptune just seems rocky.
When the cores are solidified there is no geological activity.
I do believe that the rock cycle happens outside of earth. Saturn has rocks for rings on it and many other planets have rocks on it. That's why I believe that the rock cycle can easily exist outside of earth. If I had to pick a planet that most likely had the rock cycle, I would have to pick Saturn because it's rings around it are made of ROCK!!!!
Different rock cycles fall under different conditions. So a rock cycle may be a little different on other planets.
Earth is the planet we live on, part of a solar system of eight planets. A planet is a celestial body that does not produce its own light, like stars do. The sun is a star. http://education.nationalgeographic.com/encyclopedia/earth/
I think there is a rock cycle in other planets rather than just Earth. I think Mars has a rock cycle because, it's very rocky on mars and there is also some little volcanoes including Olympus mons.
mars mighte have a rock cycle
Jupiter would not have a rock cycle because it's made up of gas.
There is a lot of Igneous rocks on mercury considering there are thousands of volcanos!
I think there is a rock cycle on other planets because most of the planets have and made out of rock
jupiter has a rock cycle because jupiter has rock and has moment just like earth but does not have volcano like us
Jupiter would not have a rock cycle, because it is made up mostly of gas but it has rocky moons that can be investigated.
I think Mars has a rock cycle because it just makes me think of rocks and because I think all planets are made of rock.
I think the rock cycle might be on other planets. But I think that it might exist on some of the planets in our solar system or at once. But might not exist know.
I think another planet that would have a rock cycle is the planet mars.
I think there isn't a rock cycle on jupiter because its mostly gas.
pluto no because it is way way to cold.
I pick plato and i think it has no rock cycle because there is no heat or much gravity.
I think Jupiter has a rock cycle because it is very hot witch the heat and presser would create erosion.
yes. mars does have a rock cycle, volcanoes have been found on mars. which concludes the fact that mars does have a rock cycle.
I think it really relies on the type of planet its materials and more.

I think Saturn may have a rock cycle because it has a top ice lair. On the inside of the ice is stone. I think Saturn may have a severe case of ice wedging. I think this because Saturn has a giant lair of ice above it's rocky core.
I think there are rock cycles on the inner planets because they're rocky. without a rock cycle there would be no rocks.
I think mar's would because, there is a lot of rock's, and because it is a hot plant.
I pick saturn. I don't think that saturn has a rock cycle because there is no water and without water there is no rock cycle.
I think that Venus wouldn't have a rock cycle cause there would be to much heat and pressure
I choose Saturn and I think that it does have a rock cycle because it would spin around because of the rings.

I would think that neptune would not have a rock cycle. It is completely made of gas, so rocks could not form. Therefore, there would be no rock cycle.
I think Mars might have a rock cycle, sure. Nothing melts, or it has bearly any gravity. But, rocks can still fall. I'm not quite sure, to be honest.
I don't think there is any full rock cycles on other planets.
the sun has a rock cycle cause its hot and melts down any meteroids that hit into the sun and creates Erosion
I think there is the rock cycle on other planets because it is rocky on other planets such as (mars).
I think Pluto odes not have a Rock cycle because one, its to far away from the sun so it has no heat and theres Basically no Gravity. But I do think Mars has a Rock Cycle because, it is very rocky and has minerals and stuff like that and it is hot and it is the closest planet to us so I would think they would have one.
I don't believe that mars has a rock cycle sure it has a lot of rocks I mean it is a rock but not a rock cycle,or so i believe. I don't believe it has a rock cycle because it doesn't have weathering or erosion. Thats why I believe that mars has no rock cycle.
i think vienis because theirs a lot of chemicals and they might erode rocks and its hot.
i think jupiter has a rock cycle because it is very hot
i think ploto has a rock cycle becuse it is made of rock and gas
I would think that neptune would not have a rock cycle. It is completely made of gas, so rocks could not form. Therefore, there would be no rock cycle.
i don't think there is any full rock cycles on other planets.
i don't think there is any rock cycles on other planets even mars or the moon
I pick saturn because i dont think it has a rock cycle because of its rings
I don't think there is any full rock cycles on other planets.
I think that on vienes has a rock cycle because: there is lots of chemicals and sulfur and stuff like that, and that could be like weathering, there are lots of volcanoes, so heating, but I dont think it could cool down because it is so hot there. And stuff would build up, (pressure) and compact and make some sort of metamorphic rock thing.
I think some planets do have the rock cycle and others don't because some planets are made out of gas and some are made out of rocks.
I think mars has a rock cycle becuase there is rocks.
I think there are other planets who ave the rock cycle. I think mercury has the rock cycle because since it is closer to the sun so there is a lot of heat.
I think that any planet can have a rock cycle if its composition contains rock. If there is no rock then how would there be a rock cycle. To be honest, I don't quite understand planets too much, so my response may seem vague, and I am truly sorry for that. On the subject of rock cycles, Mars might have a rock cycle because there is a lot of rock there, while Neptune might not because the only rock on Neptune is its core.
