The Rock Cycle is the process in which rocks are
formed, changed, and broken down. An igneous rock can either change into a
sedimentary or into a metamorphic rock; just the same that a sedimentary rock
can change into an igneous rock or metamorphic rock. Factors like heat, water,
and air can break and
form new types of rocks in a continuous cycle.
The rock
cycle never stops; it is a continuous process that occurs through time. A
mountain that is composed of metamorphic rocks can easily be
washed away by streams and new sedimentary rocks can be formed through this
process.
