Summary of passage

The rock cycle is a process that constantly changes rocks from one form to another. It consists of three main types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed when magma cools and hardens, while sedimentary rocks are formed from pressed materials over time. Metamorphic rocks are formed under extreme heat and pressure. The cycle starts with igneous rocks, which can be weathered into sedimentary rocks, then transformed into metamorphic rocks. The cycle continues as metamorphic rocks erode into sediment, which can form sedimentary rocks again. This never-ending process helps shape the Earth’s surface over millions of years. The rock cycle is a fascinating way to see how the Earth is constantly changing.
