The Rock cycle is a process in which certain types of rocks weather, erode and deposit. The Rock cycle has no start, and no end. The Rock cycle goes on forever and never stops. Even when all the rocks in the cycle (igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary) finish the cycle the cycle starts again with another Rock. Where the Rock cycle will start in this presentation, is sedimentary. So the sedimentary rocks get heated and pressurized like when making a snow ball, they turn Ito metamorphic Rock. Then the metamorphic Rock melts into magma that then turns into igneous rock through a cooling process. The igneous rock can also melt into magma. Then the igneous rock weathers into sediments. Those sediments then compact sedimentary rock. And the sedimentary rocks can weathers into sediments. (As seen in the picture above.)

The Rock cycle is the changes of rocks, and the different types of rocks.

Nonfoliated metamorphic Rock

Nonfoliated metamorphic Rock is Rock that does NOT have parallel bands. Some nofoliated rocks are hornfels, marble, quartzite and novaculite.
