Who is correct a metamorphic rock is formed from a sedimentary rock or a metamorphic rock can form from an igneous rock?
both are correct metamorphic rock can form from both.
Which process can cause metamorphic rock to change into igneous rock?
Melting of the bulk of the metamorphic rock, then solidification from cooling, will form an igneous rock.
What do Volcanic eruptions form igneous rock sedimentary rock or metamorphic rock?
Igneous rocks
When magma cools and hardens does it form igneous rock sedimentary rock or metamorphic rock?
igneous rock.
What type of rock can only be formed from sedimentary rock or igneous rock?
Metamorphic rock can form from igneous and sedimentary rock. It can also form from previously metamorphosed rock into a higher grade metamorphic rock.
Does a rock go through the complete rock cycle by changing from igneous rock to sedimentary to metamorphic?
Yes, it can. However, an igneous rock can change to a metamorphic rock skipping sedimentary: the tectonic plates can push igneous rock deep into the ground, forming metamorphic rock. Sedimentary can form metamorphic, metamorphic can form magma or lava by melting and/or erupting and then turn into igneous. Igneous forms sedimentary with erosion, deposition compaction, and cementation.
Can heat form an igneous rock or a metamorphic rock?
metamorphic because it melts the rock and forms another
How can a igneous rock form into a metamorphic rock?
The igneous rock gets pushed deeper and deeper and slowly turns into lava or magma and slowly cools into metamorphic rock.
What type of rock means changed form?
Metamorphic has this root.
What rock can only be formed from sedimenta rock or igneous rock?
Metamorphic rocks. With proper heat and pressure sedimentary and igneous rocks can form metamorphic rocks.
What kind of rock does Igneous rock eventually form?
Sedimentary or metamorphic.
What makes a sedimentary or igneous rock form to a metamorphic rock?
heat and pressure is applied to the rock and it becomes a metamorphic rock.
