Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a rock is uplifted and exposed, it is exposed to weathering and erosion which breaks it down into sediment. This sediment can then be transported and deposited, eventually becoming compacted and cemented into a sedimentary rock. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of molten rock, crystalline rocks are formed from the slow cooling and solidification of magma or lava, and metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of pre-existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
