What do rocks do under heat and pressure?

rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.


What is rock that is changed by heat pressure or chemical change?

Metamorphic rocks have been changed by heat or pressure. This can be a change in size, shape, or arrangement of minerals.


What rocks are formed by the effect of heat and pressure on other rocks?

the metamorphic rocks are formed by heat and extreme pressure from other rocks


How does metamorphic rocks change into sedimentary rocks?

by heat & pressure


Can metamorphic rocks from from other metamorphic rocks?

Yes. Most likely it would become a metamorphic rock of higher grade. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock. With increased heat and pressure it will become schist, a high grade metamorphic rock.


How does sedimentry change into metamorphic?

Sedimentary rocks change under great pressure and temperature condition to form metamorphic rocks


Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressure underground?

Metamorphic rocks are produced when other rocks are subjected to high temperature and pressure underground. This process causes their mineral composition, texture, and structure to change, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks like marble, slate, and schist.


What is one thing that change a rock to a metamorphic rock?

Heat and pressure change rocks to metamorphic!


What rocks change into metamorphic rocks?

Any type of rock can become metamorphic.


How do sedimentary rock change metamorphic?

Sedimentary rocks change to metamorphic the same way any other rock would: through heat and pressure.


What can make Sedimentary Rocks and Igneous Rocks change into Metamorphic Rocks?

heat and pressure.


How do metamorphic rocks change?
