List the steps that would cause the transformation Intrusive

igneous rock → sedimentary rock

• Melt / Crystallization → Exposure and Weathering → Erosion and Deposition → Lithification and Compaction

• Exposure and Weathering → Erosion and Deposition

• Exposure and Weathering → Erosion and Deposition → Lithification and Compaction
