Explanation:

The rock - cycle involves the transformation between igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, along with processes like melting, cooling, weathering, erosion, compaction, and cementation. Analyzing the diagram, we can see sedimentary rock is present, and processes like melting are also likely represented in part. Compacting and cementing are processes related to sedimentary rock formation. However, metamorphic rock is not clearly labeled in the diagram while other key components seem accounted for.

Answer:

D. Metamorphic rock
