the lithosphere, which contains all of the cold, hard, solid rock of the planet's crust (surface), the hot semi-solid rock that lies underneath the crust, the hot liquid rock near the center of the planet, and the solid iron core (center) of the planet

the hydrosphere, which contains all of the planet's solid, liquid, and gaseous water,

the biosphere, which contains all of the planet's living organisms, and

the atmosphere, which contains all of the planet's air.

Identify the series of geologic process that can transform magma into granite, granite into sand, and sand into sandstone.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

a) cooling; weathering and erosion; compacting and cementing.

Explanation:

Cooling : Magma into granite

The transformation of magma into granite is a process of cooling . Magma are hot and semi liquid that originate from the interior of the earth. The magma may be solidified at the subsurface or surface of the earth to form rocks like granite, basalt etc . The process of <em>cooling</em> causes the magma to become solidified.

weathering and erosion : granite into sand

After the formation of this rocks , the rocks might further be disintegrated by a process known as weathering . Weathering is a process that breaks down preexisting rocks(granite) into smaller particles(sand). Weathering may be physical or chemical weathering. Physical weathering, the weathered rock still retain is chemical make up, similar to that of the parent rock . Chemical weathering involves chemical changes in the mineral assemblage of the weathered rock. After weathering, erosion transport the individual constituent of the weathered rock() .

compacting and cementing: sand into sandstone

After erosion must have transported the broken rocks to a location. Cementing agents act on the broken rocks to glue them together forming a new type of rocks. The particles(sand) are compacted to form rocks(sandstone)

The five boxes below represent a geologic cross-cut with five layers (A is on top and E is on the bottom). The types of rocks ar

antiseptic1488 [7]

Explanation:

Here is the explanation about these layers.

Limestone: This rock is formed from sediments that gather on the river floor over time & Limestone is mostly found in rivers, caves, etc. This resource is made from natural activity, for example, sediments travelling through the river & the water causing it to settle.

Banded-iron formations: This rock, or resource, is thought to be made in the seawater millions of years ago and is the result of oxygen production from a particular type of photosynthetic cyanobacteria. The oxygen, combined with dissolved iron makes this resource.

A metamorphic rock with fine grains: I cannot explain how this rock is made from, please find someone who can.

Red Beds: "Red beds may form during diagenesis. The key to this mechanism is the intrastriatal alteration of ferromagnesian silicates by oxygenated groundwaters during burial. " - Wikipedia

Chert Layers: Chert can form when microcrystals of silicon dioxide grow within soft sediments that will become limestone or chalk.

I hope this has helped you to learn about these rocks.
