Question

the diagram below is a model of the rock cycle. the diagram shows how one type of rock can change into another type of rock. select the igneous rock.

Explanation:

Igneous rocks form from the crystallization of molten rock (magma or lava). In the rock cycle diagram, the process of crystallization leads to igneous rock. The rock with the "crystallization" arrow pointing to it (the dark, non - layered, non - sediment - like rock, likely the one at the top with the crystallization arrow) is igneous. The rock associated with crystallization (the top - most rock in the diagram with the crystallization process leading to it) is the igneous rock because igneous rocks are formed when magma or lava cools and crystallizes.

Answer:

The rock at the top of the diagram (the one with the "crystallization" arrow leading to it, appearing as a dark, solid - looking rock) is the igneous rock. (If we consider the diagram's elements, the rock that has the "crystallization" process associated with its formation, which is the key process for igneous rocks, is the igneous rock. Typically, in such diagrams, the rock formed by crystallization from melting (magma/lava) is the igneous rock, so the top - most rock with the crystallization arrow is the igneous rock.)
