How does igneous rock become sedimentary rock?

Biology
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Igneous rock can form underground, where the magma cools slowly. Or, igneous rock can form above ground, where the magma cools quickly. When it pours out on Earth's surface, magma is called lava. In this way, igneous rock can become sedimentary rock.

Any rock (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) can become a metamorphic rock. If rocks are buried deep in the Earth at high temperatures and pressures, they form new minerals and textures all without melting. If melting occurs, magma is formed, starting the rock cycle all over again.

Describe how global fertility rates and populations are changing?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

for rates

Higher child mortality causes higher fertility rates. Rapid population growth has been a temporary phenomenon in countries around the world. Rapid population growth starts when the health of the population improves and the mortality rate in a population decreases while the birth rate stays as high as before.

for population

Population growth is still fast: Every year 140 million are born and 58 million die – the difference is the number of people that we add to the world population in a year: 82 million. ... In red you see the annual population growth rate (that is, the percentage change in population per year) of the global population.
