Tissue damage activates nociceptors or pain receptors in the skin. A signal is sent to the peripheral nerve to the spinal cord where neurotransmitters or chemical messengers are released. It activates other nerves to pass signal to the brain. The signals are relayed to the somatosensory cortex for sensation, frontal cortex for thinking and limbic system for emotional response.

Answer:

Igneous rocks form when magma (molten rock) cools and crystallizes, either at volcanoes on the surface of the Earth or while the melted rock is still inside the crust.

Sedimentary rocks are erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification. Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones.

Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors.
