When the metamorphic rock breaks down into sediment. Thus, making the new rock sedimentary because when sediment forms together over time it makes it sedimentary rock
What else can I help you with?
How could metamorphic rock become a sedimentary rock?
When sedimentary rock undergoes enough heat and pressure, it becomes metamorphic rock. A classic example of this is when shale becomes slate.
What is a name of a sedimentary rock that becomes igneous?
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.
What happens to a sedimentary rock after weathering?
I becomes sediments again or becomes igneous or metamorphic rock
When Sedimentary rocks melt what kind of rock is formed?
when sedimentary melts the heat squeezes the rock then it becomes a metamorphic rock.
How does sedimentary rock change to metamorphic rock?
metamorphic rocks get compacted and cemented together until it becomes sedimentary rocks. they can also get crystallized underwater into sedimentary rock. hope you find this helpful!!! :)when a rock is put under a lot of heat and pressure it morphs into a sedimentary rock.
What does sedimentary rock become when it is metamorphosed?
Sedimentary rock becomes metamorphic rock when subjected to high temperatures and pressures. This process causes the minerals within the sedimentary rock to recrystallize and reorganize, resulting in a new rock with different characteristics.
Can a sedimentary rock become an igneous rock before it becomes a metamorphic rock?
Yes, depending on where it is located
How a metamorphic rock can be changed into a sedimentary rock?
A metamorphic rock can be broken down in the weathering process, the same as any other type of rock. Once the weathered material is deposited, compacted, and lithified (turned to rock), it becomes a sedimentary rock.
How can an Igneous rock change?
An igneous rock, just like any other rock, can be changed through metamorphic, igneous, and/or sedimentary processes. When exposed to high temp. and pressure, igneous becomes metamorphic. When re-melted, it becomes igneous again. When weathered/eroded, it becomes sedimentary.
How can igneous rock change?
An igneous rock, just like any other rock, can be changed through metamorphic, igneous, and/or sedimentary processes. When exposed to high temp. and pressure, igneous becomes metamorphic. When re-melted, it becomes igneous again. When weathered/eroded, it becomes sedimentary.
Is granite is a igneous sedimentary or metamorphic?
the granite melts into lava then cools becoming igneous. it erodes into sediment and then gets compressed into a sedimentary rock. the sedimentary rock becomes metamorphic with heat and pressure deep within Earth
