Rock Cycle

Igneous rocks forms when magma cools either above or below ground and
solidifies into crystal form. Then when it is above the surface weather and erosion
can break up the sediments  time and pressure cement the pieces together into
sedimentary rock. Through heat and pressure, sedimentary rock can also change
into metamorphic rock. Weathering and erosion can render sedimentary rock into
igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can melt into magma and become igneous rock;
it can also go through a weathering and compaction process to become
sedimentary rock.
