    The rock cycle is a continuous process that changes materials found in

    a. both earths lithosphere and mantle.

    b. only in earths lithosphere.

    c. only earths mantle.

    d. in neither the Earth's lithosphere nor the Earth's mantle.

    The answer is a. both earths lithosphere and mantle

    Igneous rocks can be formed in two ways, both on the surface and in the inner layers of the soil.

    Sedimentary rocks are formed from the sum of the remains of rocky sediments that remain on the ground surface of igneous rocks, due to erosion and other effects of nature, more than the remains of living beings accumulated in the layers of earth through time.

    Metamorphic rocks derive from sedimentary rocks. They are formed when sedimentary rocks are deposited in the layers of the earth's crust, along with the rest of other rocks, either by the action of water, if they are found in rivers or seas, by the movements of tectonic plates, among others.

    Explanation:

    The lithological cycle or rock cycle is a concept of geology that describes the transitions of material in geological time that allow all rock to be transformed into one of three types: sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks and igneous rocks.

    This cycle indicates the geological time it takes for the rocks to transform, and this is because the rocks are forced to change because they are linked to other cycles such as, for example, the water cycle or the movements of tectonic plates.

    It should be noted that rocks are solid materials composed of minerals and that most of the earth is composed of them, for this reason it is considered that rocks have an important role in the balance of nature.
