The rock cycle is complex that is composed of various processes on forming sedimentary rocks, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. One of the processes starts in a volcano..

# data[].attributes.body
The rock cycle is driven by two forces: Earth's internal heat engine, which causes slow changes in the crust, and the hydrological cycle, driven by the sun, that moves water, ice, and air at the surface. Three main rock types—sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic—formed through melting, cooling, erosion, compaction, and deformation.

After Igneous rocks form from the solidification of lava, the rocks will soon break down into smaller pieces due to weathering. These small sediments will settle in layers underwater, underground, or on land brought by rivers, streams, wind, etc.

Once the lava cools and solidifies the molten lava or magma expelled during a volcanic eruption "Igneous rocks" form.

Sedimentary rocks are formed completely after they are transported/deposited because after they go through compaction and cementation where accumulated layers of sediment are pressed together and chemically bonded over time.

After Sedimentary rocks are pressed and bonded they will undergo a transformation conducted by heat and pressure. This intense heat and pressure causes physical and chemical changes in its mineral structure.

After the formation of the Metamorphic rocks, some are forced to resurface and uplift to the surface. However, some are also left underground causing it to melt into magma with the increasing pressure and heat.

With some Metamorphic rocks melt into magma this returns to the the beginning of the cycle inside a volcano. Once it erupts the cycle repeats itself and this is only one of the processes in the complex rock cycle.
