The rock cycle
: Forces inside Earth and at the surface produce a rock cycle that builds,
destroys, and changes the rocks in the crust. Rocks change from one type to another in many possible paths. |
![]() |
Plate Tectonics: Earth's crust is divided into parts called plates that float on top of molten rock (mantle) inside Earth.
|
|
Weathering: Surface rock is constantly being broken down by natural forces
such as wind, water, ice, and living things. Erosion: The movement of broken bits of rock by wind, water, and ice with the force of gravity.

Sedimentary Rock: is made from rock particles
(sediment) that are bonded
together to form rock.
