Answer:  The correct answer is :  (2) all inorganic rocks except igneous rocks are formed from other rocks

Explanation:  Igneous rocks are formed by the solidification of magma, the process is slow if it is in the crust and fast if it is on the surface.

Sedimentary rocks are formed on the surface of the earth by processes of erosion and alteration of pre-existing rocks.

Metamorphic rocks have been formed by the evolution of another previous rock due to the environment to which it is subjected that may be hotter, colder or of a different pressure.

Answer:

(2) all inorganic rocks except igneous rocks are  formed from other rock

Explanation:

  • The rocks that were first to form in the earth were the primary igneous rocks as the name ignis related to fire and thus are one that is firmed by the earth interiors activities of tectonics and rest of the other rocks are a product of the rock cycle and inorganic rocks are made firm the other indirect sources.

Which of the layers listed below is not defined as a layer by composition? Select one: a. Lithosphere b. Crust c. Core O d. Mant
Hitman42 [59]

1. a. Lithosphere

If we divide the Earth into layers by their composition, then there are three of them, the crust, mantle, and core. The crust is the thinnest layer, being on the top, and being solid. The mantle is the second layer, lying between the crust and the core. It is a layer where the temperature and pressure are higher, and the rocks are hot and slow-moving. The core is the bottom layer, in the center of the planet. It is the hottest and has the highest pressure, being the densest of the layers and is composed mostly of iron and in lesser percentage of nickel.

2. b. Crust

The Earth is divided into several layers depending on the layers being solid or liquid. There are five different physical layers, lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core and inner core. The lithosphere and the inner core are the two layers that are solid, thus the layer on top and the layer in the center. The asthenosphere, mesosphere, and outer core are all liquid, though it is a different degree of liquidity, and it is these three layers where the convection currents occur and cause the magnetic field of the Earth, as well as the tectonic movements.
