Rock often takes "thousands to millions of years" to change into one sort of rock.

The rock cycle is the process in which the three types of rocks—igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic—are continuously changed. Increased temperature and/or pressure are necessary for the conversion of rocks to their metamorphic state, while sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks are formed through the intermediary stages of magma and sediments, respectively.

When sedimentary rocks are extensively buried under more sediments, higher pressure without a temperature rise is created. This happens in subduction zones and regions where two continental lithosphere plates meet to form mountain ranges. When rocks are elevated, worn, and eroded, the resulting detrital material is deposited in marine or terrestrial basins, producing sediments. The sediments may lithify to form a sedimentary rock if they are buried behind more sedimentary layers. When rocks melt, magma is created. When a mid-ocean ridge opens up and causes decompression melting in the asthenosphere underneath it, this melting can take place. It can also happen when a lithospheric plate sinks into the Earth's crust at a subduction zone. Upon the magma's formation, it becomes an igneous rock.

2. Which of these is an example of hubris?
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

After escaping, Odysseus continues to taunt Polyphemus and brags about his exploits.

Explanation:

The term "hubris" refers to the quality of a person in having or exhibiting extreme pride and ambition in his/her own actions and abilities. This personality quality of a person, in the over-confidence of a person, will oftentimes lead to an inescapable downfall later on.

In the epic "The Odyssey" by Homer, hubris is one character trait of Odysseus. One such example is when they were on the island of Polyphemus. After 'stealing' from Polyphemus, Odysseus lost many of his men to the cyclops. But despite that, he brags about his 'loot' and even taunts the one-eyes monster. He knows that it was against the wish of the gods to get involved or 'disturb' the cyclops, and that 'looting' a demi-god was against the rules, Odysseus couldn't help but brag about it, his bravery and ability in escaping the clutches of the demi-god.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
