Question

Uplift, weathering, burial, and heating/melting can transform one rock type into another. B. All rocks in the Earth's crust will, at some point, be subducted and melted to create igneous rock. C. Earth materials cannot change from one type to another. D. The Earth is a static, unchanging system.

Answer 1

b. All rocks in the Earth's crust will, at some point, be subducted and melted to create igneous rock.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 types of rock:

1. Igneous, wich are formed when 2 tectonic plates collide and magma goes to surface getting cold

2. Sedimentary: when many layers of preexistent rocks produce pressure and heat by weigth melting the rocks.

3. Metamorphic: a new rock is formed by chemical and/or physical reaction over preexistent rocks

Sedimentary and metamorphic would be subducted in order to produce new igneus rocks.
