What process powers the rock cycle?

There are many different answers but the main process is probably heat, heat will melt rock to make it igneous when it cools.  Heat will cause chemical and physical changes to change rock into metamorphic rock.  Heat will drive the forces that break down rock at the surface.  Heat will also cause the water cycle to precipitate water causing erosion and weathering. Heat will cause a freeze thaw cycle that breaks rock up.This creates sediment that can be transported by wind or water these depend on heat.Then the sediments will become sedimentary rock. Hope this helps! :)

THIS IS FOR SCIENCE
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

An organism has many benefits for having the ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually. The first of these benefits is that it doesn't have to find a mate in order to reproduce, so it can create offspring by itself, and enable the continuation of its' species.

Explanation:

Organisms that reproduce sexually mix their genetics with other individuals, meaning no two individuals are the exact same, genetically. This is beneficial because it decreases the likelihood an entire population will be wiped out by one threat, such as a disease, because many individuals will not be susceptible to the threat.

Organisms that reproduce asexually are able to do so at a much more rapid rate. In bacteria, they asexually reproduce by the thousands in hours because they do not have to rely on the complexities of sexual reproduction.
