It can be any type of rock. If heat and pressure deep in the Earth changed it, it is a metamorphic rock. If sediments of sand or other rocks compacted/cemented together, it's a sedimentary rock. If magma from a volcano cools, (on the outside of a volcano) it's an igneous rock.
The rock that existed before it is changed into a metamorphic rock is called a protolith.
yes it can- metamorphic has to change into one type of rock after it is changed from another.
The process is called metamorphism, occurring through the rock cycle.
No, intrusive rock is not also called platonic rock. Plutonic rock is another name for this type of rock, which is produced by magma.

The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.
A "metamorphic" rock has done this.

Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
It is called the Rock Cycle.
when a material changes from a solution into another material what is thes prosses called
Yes. There are degrees of rock metamorphism, where a metamorphic rock can be altered into another metamorphic rock by increased pressure and heat.
