Rock cycle order:
- Igneous Rocks-when the molten magma cools; it solidifies to become igneous rock.
- Sedimentary Rocks- igneous rocks are broken down into small particles that are transported and deposited to form sedimentary rocks.
- Metamorphic Rocks- igneous and sedimentary rocks are subjected to heat and pressure they change into metamorphic rocks.
- The metamorphic rocks which are still under great heat and pressure melt down to form molten magma. This molten magma again can cool down and solidify into igneous rocks
