which process recycles rocks from one type to another over time?
oxygen cycle

rock cycle
The rock cycle is the process by which rocks are recycled from one type (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) to another over time through processes like melting, cooling, weathering, erosion, deposition, and metamorphism. The oxygen - cycle deals with the movement of oxygen in the environment, the deposition cycle is mainly about the deposition of sediments, and plate tectonics is about the movement of Earth's lithospheric plates which is related to the rock - cycle but not the specific process of rock recycling.
