Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)
It must melt.
Yes. There are degrees of rock metamorphism, where a metamorphic rock can be altered into another metamorphic rock by increased pressure and heat.
No, rock does not melt when it is changing into metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks form from pre-existing rocks, such as sedimentary or igneous rocks, through a process called metamorphism. This process involves changes in temperature, pressure, or the presence of fluids, which cause the minerals in the rock to recrystallize without melting.
If the metamorphic rock becomes hot enough it can melt.
Any metamorphic rock can melt and recrystallize and become an igneous rock.
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
Yes. A metamorphic rock can melt and the re-solidify as an igneous rock.

It must melt.
if rock melts it will form magma, which leads to the formation of igneous rocks
The rocks will melt when they reach the proper temperature, usually thousands of degrees.
it turns into sand
