Answer:
The process
Weathering
Weathering is a process of breaking down rocks into smaller and smaller particles through factors like temperature , biological involvement of nature and water playing a huge role in the process.
Erosion and Transport
The natural process of breaking down rocks into sand-like particles.
Deposition of Sediment
Sediment is the constant deposition or settling down of small particles of sand, pebbles, etc. that is broken down from rocks. It is uaully done by Wind and water, Biological Influence and evaporation.
Burial and Compaction
Sand particles are sedimented, they create layers which are soon covered by another layer of new sediments and the process goes on.
Crystallization of Magma
Magma is basically lava that remains dormant inside the volcanoes. Magma is the liquid form of rocks under great pressure and temperature due to heat from the earth core.
Melting
As soon as the rocks reach the bottom of the earth, the more the temperature rises and so does the pressure. Soon, they melt and give rise to melted rocks called lava.
Uplift
The process of forming a crust of earth upwards due to natural forces causing movements in the tectonic plates is called uplifting. This is how mountains rise higher while new islands come up in the middle of the oceans.
Deformation and Metamorphism
Deformation basically means folding and faulting of rocks. This is caused by compression and tension.
hope this helps :)
