Gneiss is a foilated metamorphic rock.
Many kinds of rocks both of igneous and sedimentary nature eg; Limestone (sedimentary ) to marble or granite or diorite (igneous) to gneiss.

Sedimentary rocks (such as sandstone and limestone), igneous rocks (such as granite and basalt), and metamorphic rocks (such as marble) are all used in masonry.
by heat & pressure
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
they change into metamorphic rocks
Sedimentary rocks change under great pressure and temperature condition to form metamorphic rocks
igneous rocks are formed by cooling lava from volcanos. Obsidian is an igneous rock. Sedimentary rocks are formed by particles being deposited by water. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock. Metamorphic rocks are formed when heat, pressure, and chemical reactions change existing rocks. Granite is a metamorphic rock.
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.
heat and pressure.
Sedimentary rocks such as shale, limestone, and sandstone can recrystallize to form metamorphic rocks like slate, marble, and quartzite, respectively. Igneous rocks like basalt and granite can also undergo recrystallization to form metamorphic rocks such as greenstone and gneiss.
