How do igneous rocks change into metamorphic rocks?
The metamorphic rock melts into magma then cools into igneous rock
Can igneous rock be formed into a metamorphic rock?
An igneous rock can be metamorphosed (changed) into a metamorphic rock but will no longer be an igneous rock. An igneous body can be intruded into metamorphic rocks but will still be an igneous rock that is different from the surrounding metamorphic rocks. Ethier answer work depending on how the question is read.
Can any type of rock change?
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
Do rocks change into different rock in the rock cycle?
yes, rocks change. metamorphic, sedimantary and igneous rocks can change into eachother.
What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks?
The rock cycle
When is a igneous rock change into a metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rocks are made by heat and pressure, and assuming this isn't a grown person, you SHOULD know that igneous rocks are formed by lava or magma that hardens, so it is when a metamorphic rock is melted, and then hardens. This creates igneous rock.

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.
Is metamorphic rocks made up of sedimentary rock igneous rock or other metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks
Igneous rock can be transformed into metamorphic rock through what?
Usually it is sedimentary rock that is changed into metamorphic - however it is entirely possible for igneous rock to become metamorphic as well. Metamorphic means different form, and in the geological since it mean rock that has been changed by heat and pressure. Now there isn't too much that can be done to igneous rock to change it chemically, by heat and pressure. But it can undergo physical distortions.
Who is correct a metamorphic rock is formed from a sedimentary rock or a metamorphic rock can form from an igneous rock?
A metamorphic rock can form from either a sedimentary rock or an igneous rock. When subjected to high heat and pressure, existing rocks can recrystallize and change into new types of rocks, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks.
How could an igneous rock change to a metamorphic rock?
Under influence of pressure and temperature, a rock can change, the process is called deformation or metamorphism, the result is a metamorphic rock. This can happen to igneous rocks as well.
