Rock Cycle (Research from Week 2)


The rock cycle is centered around magma, which cools into igneous rock, which, if pressure and heat is added to it, it creates metamorphic rock. If the igneous rock erodes and is deposited in riverbeds, sedimentary rock  will form. Sedimentary rock will also form if metamorphic rock erodes and is deposited in riverbeds. Metamorphic and sedimentary rock, when melted, returns to magma and the cycle starts all over again.
