Which statements correctly describe the rock cycle? check all that apply. rocks are preserved through the process. rocks change from one type to another. different rock groups are interrelated. rocks change from one type to another in a specific order. environmental conditions influence a change in rock type.

The answers are:
- Different rock groups are interrelated
- Rocks change from one type to another in a specific order
- Environmental conditions influence a change in rock type

- The rocks are interrelated between each other, for example the igneous rocks are the basis for forming the metamorphic rocks, and also are the basis for forming the sedimentary rocks.
- There's a specific order in the changing of the rock types. The igneous rocks are the first ones that form. After millions of years, the rocks that are deeper underground and are under certain pressure and temperature are turning into metamorphic rocks, while the ones on the surface are slowly dissolving and are turning into sedimentary rocks.
- The environmental conditions are a key factor for the change of rock types, because they are the ones that make the pressure on the with different elements and change their structure accordingly over time.
