rock cycle
The three types of rocks in the rock cycle are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from molten rock cooling and solidifying. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compaction of sediments. Metamorphic rocks form from the alteration of existing rocks under high pressure and temperature.
The main type of energy used to convert metamorphic rocks into igneous rocks in the rock cycle is heat. The increase in temperature causes the metamorphic rocks to melt and then solidify into igneous rocks.

The main type of energy used to help convert metamorphic rocks into igneous rocks in the rock cycle is heat. This heat can come from the Earth's internal heat source, such as magma or lava, or from tectonic processes like plate collisions or volcanic activity. The high temperatures and pressure conditions found deep within the Earth can cause metamorphic rocks to melt and form igneous rocks.
