What else can I help you with?
Can high pressure can change an igneous rock into a sedimentary rock?
No, high pressure alone cannot change an igneous rock into sedimentary rock; however, the reverse is true. High pressure can change sedimentary rock into igneous rock.
How do rocks change from metamorphic or sedimentary rocks to igneous rocks?
Metamorphic and sedimentary rocks can change into igneous rocks through the process of melting and cooling. When subjected to intense heat and pressure, the rocks can melt and form magma. This magma can then cool and solidify, forming igneous rocks.
How can a sedimentary rock change to a igneous rock?
Heat and pressure
How is metamorphic rock is made from sediment?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by rocks sedimentary or igneous that change their form under intense heat and or pressure.
How the igneous rocks change?
Igneous rocks change to Metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure. Igneous rocks change to sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion until the igneous rock is sediments. The sediments then compact to form sedimentary rocks.
What is required to change an igneous rock into a sedimentary rock?
Igneous rocks are a "finished product". They do not become sedimentary rock - though sedimentary rocks, with heat and pressure can become metamorphic rocks.
Can you give me an example of an igneous rock that can change into a sedimentary rock?
ones it get pressure and heated
What can make Sedimentary Rocks and Igneous Rocks change into Metamorphic Rocks?
heat and pressure.
What conditions change igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks?
Heat and pressure are the main agents that change igneous and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks. The intense heat and pressure alter the mineral composition and texture of the rocks, resulting in the formation of new minerals and a more compact, crystalline structure. Additionally, the presence of fluids such as water can enhance these metamorphic processes by facilitating mineral reactions.
What process must take place to change igneous or sedimentary rock to metamorphic rock?
Heat and pressure
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.
