What helps create both metamorphic rock and sedimentary rocks?
Both metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocks can be created through processes like heat and pressure (metamorphism), as well as erosion, transport, deposition, and lithification (sedimentation). Metamorphic rocks form when pre-existing rocks undergo intense heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust, while sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compression of sediments over time.
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?

What is the difference between cementation from stratification?
Cementation refers to the process of minerals binding sediment grains together to form rock. Stratification refers to the layering of different sedimentary rock layers based on their grain size, composition, or other characteristics. Essentially, cementation is the process that can occur within stratified rock layers.
Does heat help create both metamorphic rock and sedimentary rock?
Heat plays a key role in the formation of metamorphic rock by altering existing rocks under high pressure and temperature conditions. However, heat is not as critical in the formation of sedimentary rock, which primarily forms through the accumulation and compaction of sediment over time.
Which type of rocks can become metamorphic?
Both sedimentary and igneous
Can metamorphic rocks form form igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks through the process of heat and pressure, but they are more commonly associated with forming from existing metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks can indirectly contribute to the formation of metamorphic rocks by heating up and altering surrounding rocks, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.
Can the gravel in a sedimentary rock consist of both igneous and metamorphic rock?
Rock contained within a sedimentary rock could be igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary, or any combination of the three rock types in origin.
What types of rock can be changed to a metamorphic?
All rock types, igneous, sedimentary, and even metamorphic can be altered to new metamorphic rock.
