Answer

  1. Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks are changed by intense heat and pressure deep within Earth.

  2. The process by which sediments are bound together by the precipitation of dissolved minerals is called cementation.

  3. Small pieces of rock, sand, or soil that are transported by water, wind, ice, or gravity are known as sediments.

  4. The series of continuous processes by which rocks change from one type to another over time is called the rock cycle.
