Can igneous rock be formed from rock that was once sedimentary rock?

Yes, if sedimentary rock is moved below Earth’s outer layer and exposed to energy from Earth’s interior, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock

Yes, if sedimentary rock is exposed to energy from the sun at Earth’s surface for a long enough time, it can melt into liquid rock and form igneous rock.

No, igneous rock can only form from other igneous rock. Sedimentary rock cannot change into igneous rock.

No, igneous rock forms under Earth’s outer layer due to energy from Earth’s interior, but sedimentary rock only forms at Earth’s surface.

You have 2 rocks formed at the same time. One rock was formed from small pieces of rock and the other was formed from liquid rock in a different place. Would these rocks be the same or different types of rock? Why?

different types because they formed in different ways

the same type because they are both formed from rock material.

the same type because they formed at the same time

different types because they formed in different places

The five processes required for sedimentary rocks to form are...

weathering --> erosion --> deposition --> compaction --> cementation

subduction --> erosion --> deposition --> compaction --> cementation

weathering --> erosion --> deposition --> magma cooling --> cementation

weathering --> photosynthesis --> deposition --> compaction --> cementation
