The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.

The steps of the experiment are shown below.

Collect five pieces of wax of different colors.

Use a plastic knife to scrape off thin shavings of the pieces of wax.

Pile the wax shavings of different colors one over the other.

Hold the pile of wax shavings in the palm and squeeze it for two to three minutes. Fold the pile and squeeze it in the palm again for a minute.

What does the student's experiment most likely demonstrate about the rock cycle?

a. Weathering can change igneous rocks into sediments.

b. Weathering can change metamorphic rocks into sediments.

c. Heat and pressure can change igneous rocks into metamorphic rocks.

d. Heat and pressure can change sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Option D

Explanation: The rock cycle defines the conversion or transformation of igneous rock into sedimentary rocks and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks. The conversion of rocks into these three forms is continuous.

The igneous rocks on weathering forms sediments which on cementation and compaction gets converted into sedimentary rocks. Then sedimentary rocks under tremendous heat and pressure gets converted into metamorphic rocks.

These processes takes millions of years to gets converted from one rock form to another.

Here, in the experiment wax shavings of different colors one upon another shows that they are sedimentary rocks and pressing it between palm or hand shows that heat and pressure is applied on it. This shows the conversion of sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.
