Think about an igneous rock at the top of a mountain. If this rock went through the whole rock cycle, number the steps that would follow. in 123 order

Layers deposited begin to compact and cement together to form sedimentary rock.

Sedimentary rock is buried deeper into the earth's crust. The intense heat and pressure begins metamorphism and the rock turns into metamorphic rock.

Regolith is dumped into some type of reservoir, usually water, by deposition.

Metamorphic rock begins to melt back into magma.

Rock is broken down into regolith by weathering.

Magma is resurfaced from volcanic activity, cools, and becomes igneous rock.

Regolith is transported or eroded by rain or wind.
