Some rocks are pushed deeper into the Earth. As these rocks experience greater heat and pressure, what type of rock will they turn into if they do not melt?

Why does pressure decrease with increase in length?
Pressure effected by the volume of substance being pushed through. For instance, the longer the hose, the more water being pushed through=greater pressure. The shorter the distance the less water being pushed through=less pressure.
What happens to a rocks that are pushed under earths surface and become hotter and experience more pressure?
They become exposed to deformation, in a process called metamorphism.
Results from rocks being pushed higher and deeper as the same amount of material tries to occupy less space?
compression
When molecules of air are pushed together they form a high area of pressure which is called?
When molecules of air are pushed together, they form an area of high pressure which is called compression. If the compression is cyclonic, it is called a node.
How does warm air mass being pushed into a region of cold air affect atmospheric pressure?
It results in a lower atmospheric pressure.

Why does pressure change in the ocean floor when you go deeper?
Because all the water ontop of you is being pushed down by gravity

What happens to rocks that are pushed under earth's surface and become hotter and experience more pressure?
They become exposed to deformation in a process called metamorphism, and become metamorphic rocks.
How can a igneous rock form into a metamorphic rock?
The igneous rock gets pushed deeper and deeper and slowly turns into lava or magma and slowly cools into metamorphic rock.
If the pressure inside the lungs decreases outside air is pushed into the airways by what?
The pressure inside the lungs decreases as the ribcage moves out and up. Air from outside basically gets pushed in by other air molecules due to the pressure gradient (air moves from a high pressure to a low pressure)

compression
How does water travel up into a faucet?
It is pushed by the water pressure in the system.
Does blood get pushed from the atria?
Yes, but weakly (i.e. low pressure).
What happens to the melting point of plagioclase feldspar when it is pushed further into the earth?
the melting point decreases as pressure increases, so the further into the earth feldspar is pushed, the higher the pressure and the lover the melting point
