How does subduction contribute to the rock cycle?

• It causes rocks to melt and form magma.

• It breaks rocks into smaller pieces.

• It cools magma into igneous rock.

• It deposits sediments in rivers.

Explain how uplift can transform rocks within the rock cycle.

• Uplift exposes rocks to weathering and erosion, leading to the formation of sedimentary rocks.

• Uplift causes rocks to melt and form magma.

• Uplift cools magma into igneous rock.

• Uplift deposits sediments in rivers.

How does subduction cause the formation of metamorphic rocks?

• Subduction causes rocks to be exposed to high heat and pressure, transforming them into metamorphic rocks.

• Subduction breaks rocks into smaller pieces.

• Subduction cools magma into igneous rock.

• Subduction deposits sediments in rivers.

Analyze how the rock cycle is a continuous process that involves the transformation of rocks from one type to another.

• The rock cycle is a series of processes that continuously change rocks from one form to another through melting, cooling, weathering, erosion, compaction, cementation, heat, and pressure.

• The rock cycle is a one-time process that changes rocks from igneous to sedimentary.

• The rock cycle only involves the formation of igneous rocks.

• The rock cycle stops once rocks become metamorphic.
