Question

answer questions about rocks and the rock cycle question 12 of 15 which geologic process is illustrated in this animation? a compacting and cementing b cooling c heat and pressure d melting

Explanation:

The image shows a rock - like structure surrounded by red - colored material indicating high temperature and pressure acting on it. This is characteristic of the process where rocks are transformed by heat and pressure to form metamorphic rocks. Compacting and cementing form sedimentary rocks from sediments, cooling forms igneous rocks from magma/lava, and melting is the process of turning solid rock into magma.

Answer:

C. Heat and pressure
