What are metamorphic rocks created by?
Metamorphic rock is formed when smaller particles and minerals pack together.
How are sedimentary and metamorphic rocks similar and different?
They are both rocks. Sedimentary can contain metamorphic rocks. and vice versa.
How does metamorphic rock chang into a sedimentary rock?
A sedimentary rock changes into a metamorphic rock when there is heat, pressure, and time. -over a long period of time
How do Sedimentary rocks change to Metamorphic?
Sedimentary rocks change to metamorphic the same way any other rock would: through heat and pressure.
Is Kimberlite a metamorphic rock?
a sedimentary rock, a sedimentary rock is one that has sediments or minerals that create layers this rock is formed when preasure is put upon it.
Can metamorphic rocks melt to form sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary is formed by compression. Metamorphic is created by heat and pressure. Sedimentary can be melted to create metamorphic.
Does cementation help create both metamorphic rock and sedimentary rock?
No. Cementation is the process of rock clasts or sediments being joined by the precipitation of cementing minerals, usually quartz, calcite, or iron to create a sedimentary rock. Metamorphic rock is the alteration of existing rock due to heat and pressure.
How do heat and pressure change sedimentary rock?
A metamorphic rock is formed when sedimentary rock is subjected to heat and pressure!
CAN Metamorphic rocks occur from sedimentary and igneous rocks?
Yes, both sedimentary and igneous rock can be metamorphosed by heat and pressure.
What changes metamorphic to sedimentary?
1. Sedimentary will only change to metamorphic, not the other way around. 2. Sedimentary rock will change to metamorphic by means of heat and pressure.
What rock can be changed directly into with the application of heat and pressure?
Metamorphic and sedimentary Rock's
What rock forms when heat pressure or fluids act on igneous sedimentary or other metamorphic rock and affect its form or composition or both?
Metamorphic Rocks
How does metamorphic rock into sedimentary rock?
by heat & pressure
Can sedimentary rock be turned into metamorphic rock?
Yes it can, a sedimentary rock goes through heat and pressure and is formed into a metamorphic rock.
How do sedimentary rocks go from the sea bed to be turned into metamorphic?
sedimentary rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks by the use of pressure and/or heat
What are metamorphic rocks created by?
Metamorphic rock is formed when smaller particles and minerals pack together.
When sedimentary rock is exposed to heat and pressure's what does it change into?
Metamorphic rock
