Answer (1)
Answer:Here's a flowchart showing the rock cycle with alternative paths:*Rock Cycle Flowchart**Igneous Rock*- Magma cools and solidifies → Igneous Rock- Igneous Rock → Weathering and Erosion → Sediment- Igneous Rock → Metamorphism → Metamorphic Rock- Igneous Rock → Melting → Magma*Sedimentary Rock*- Sediment → Compaction and Cementation → Sedimentary Rock- Sedimentary Rock → Weathering and Erosion → Sediment- Sedimentary Rock → Metamorphism → Metamorphic Rock- Sedimentary Rock → Melting → Magma*Metamorphic Rock*- Igneous or Sedimentary Rock → Metamorphism → Metamorphic Rock- Metamorphic Rock → Weathering and Erosion → Sediment- Metamorphic Rock → Melting → Magma*Alternative Paths*- Igneous Rock → Sedimentary Rock (through weathering and erosion, followed by compaction and cementation)- Sedimentary Rock → Igneous Rock (through melting and solidification)- Metamorphic Rock → Igneous Rock (through melting and solidification)This flowchart shows the three main types of rocks (igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic) and the processes that transform one type of rock into another. The alternative paths highlight the complex and dynamic nature of the rock cycle.
