All of the above. That is option D.

Rock cycle is defined as the series of processes whereby a rock is transformed into another type of rock.

There are processes that makes up the rock cycle is:

  • Crystallization: Within the earth crust is the formation of magma through high temperatures. Upon the cooling of these magma, it leads to the growth of crystals which forms igneous rocks.

Therefore, rock cycle can provide materials to make other rocks.

  • Metamorphism: When a rock is exposed to extreme heat and pressure, it acquires a new mineral composition and texture.

This natural process is called metamorphism. Therefore, rocks can be changed by natural processes.

  • Sedimentation: Through the process of erosion and weathering, large rocks break down to form another type of rock called sedimentary rocks.

Therefore, rock cycle indicates that each type of rock can provide materials to make other rocks, can form other rocks and can be changed by natural processes.
