How does metamorphic rock get pushed to the surface?
i melts
When metamorphic rock changes to magma the magma rises and cools to become?
A metamorphic rock is formed by the elements, minor heat, and compression. When the metamorphic rock is melted by magma, this would indicate that the metamorphic rock is under the surface of the earth. If it rises and cools again you will have an extrusive igneous rock. In a lot of cases, this is metamorphic rock on the surface under the influence of lava. This would change the composition and it would not longer be metamorphic, but rather igneous.
What type of rock forms on earth's surface from pieces of other rock?
Metamorphic in a sentence
Why don't geologists find fossils in a metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock is formed deep in the Earth's crust under tremendous heat and pressure. Fossiles are formed in sedimentary rock near the surface.
Rock that forms from other rock due to heat and pressure beneath earths surface?
what rock forms from other rock due to heat and pressure under earth's surface
Where do Most metamorphic rock forms?
heat and pressure beneath Earth's surface can change a rock into metamorphic rock.

Where and under what conditions are metamorphic rock formed?
Heat and pressure deep beneath Earth's surface can change any rock into metamorphic rock

What forms beneath earths surface?
The rock that forms on earth's surface is extrusive rock or otherwise known as a metamorphic rock.
What rock group does gneiss belong?
Granite is an intrusive igneous rock, meaning it has solidified underground as opposed to solidification on the surface.
When metamorphic rock melts turns into?
Metamorphic rock that melts turns to magma. This only becomes lava if it is erupted to the surface in a volcano.
What type of rock forms from heat and pressure beneath earth's surface?
Metamorphic rock

What is a rock that forms from other rock due to heat and pressure beneath earths surface?
metamorphic rock
When magma cools above the earth's surface it forms?
metamorphic rock
An earthquake causes metamorphic rock deep inside a mountain to be pushed up to the mountains surface What type of rock will the metamorphic rock most likely transform into next?
Sedimentary
