The Rock Cycle - Comic Script
Storyboard Description
This is about the rock cycle, how it starts and transforms into other different kinds of rocks due to the conditions that happen. The three main rock types are igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary. The three processes that change one rock to another are crystallization, metamorphism, and erosion and sedimentation. Any rock can transform into any other rock by passing through one or more of these processes. This creates the rock cycle.
Storyboard Text
- The magma would also be inside the Earth’s crust since magma develops underground in the lower crust or upper mantle because of the fierce heat.
- It all starts from the magma inside the volcano.
- Hey! After the magma start to cool and crystalize. I become an Igneous rock!
- the solidification and cooling reality of the magma underground as it rises to the surface. The temperature would make it this way.
- From weathering and erosion, I become a sediment
- While on the surface, the weather and erosion makes the igneous rock break down into levels, sand or mud, makes the creation of sediment.
- The compaction and pressure of the sediment form me into an sedimentary rock!
- It starts off The pieces of the igneous rock are being loose making sediment like shown on the previous slide. When the sediment is buried, it comes together, being compacted and cemented, and because of the pressure it becomes a sedimentary rock
- Heat and pressure transforms me into a Metamorphic rock.
- This happens when rocks are being exposed to intense heat and pressure, or the combination. These conditions will most likely happen deep within the earth.
- After the whole rock cycle, we end up melting back to magma!
- The increasing intense temperature and pressure of the metamorphic rock, if the metamorphic rock keeps changing then it would become magma eventually.
- It all starts from magma, to Igneous, to sediment, to Sedimentary, to Metamorphic, and then magma! It’s a never ending process!
