It seems that I can't see the diagram you are referring to. However, I can help you understand the rock cycle and provide the common labels that are typically included in a diagram of the rock cycle.
Here are the primary processes and labels that you can use to complete your rock cycle diagram:
1. **Igneous Rock**: Formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
- **Label**: "Cooling and solidification"
2. **Sedimentary Rock**: Formed from the compaction and cementation of sediments.
- **Label**: "Erosion and sedimentation"
3. **Metamorphic Rock**: Formed when existing rock is changed by heat, pressure, or chemically active fluids.
- **Label**: "Heat and pressure"
4. **Magma**: Molten rock beneath the Earth's surface.
- **Label**: "Melting"
5. **Weathering and Erosion**: The processes that break down rocks and transport sediment.
- **Label**: "Weathering and erosion"
6. **Uplift**: The process that moves rocks to higher elevations.
- **Label**: "Uplift"
7. **Subduction**: The process where one tectonic plate moves under another, often leading to melting of rocks.
- **Label**: "Subduction"
By using these labels, you should be able to accurately illustrate various pathways and processes within the rock cycle. If you can provide a description of your diagram or specific areas where you seek assistance, that would allow me to offer more tailored guidance!
