The texture would reflect the degree and type of metamorphism which had led to its formation. Rock can experience various stages of metamorphism in its evolution depending mostly on changes in heat or pressure. Texture is also dependent on the composition of the protolith, or parent rock.
No, igneous rock can undergo metamorphism without becoming sedimentary rock first. Metamorphism can occur in any rock type (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) when exposed to high temperature and pressure, leading to the formation of new minerals and textures.
Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks undergo high temperatures and pressures, causing them to recrystallize into new mineral compositions and textures. This process typically occurs deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
Metamorphic rocks, like slate or quartizite, or even diamonds.
Sedimentary rocks can become metamorphic rocks due to heat, pressure, or the presence of chemically active fluids. These forces cause the minerals within the sedimentary rock to recrystallize and rearrange, forming new minerals and textures characteristic of metamorphic rocks.
An igneous rock can be metamorphosed (changed) into a metamorphic rock but will no longer be an igneous rock. An igneous body can be intruded into metamorphic rocks but will still be an igneous rock that is different from the surrounding metamorphic rocks. Ethier answer work depending on how the question is read.
Yes
The two textures of metamorphic rocks are the Foliate and Non-foliate textures.
heat and pressure
It can undergo more metamorphism, creating a different metamorphic rock, or undergo retrograde metamorphism, which also creates a different metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks can undergo these changes due to increases or decreases in temperature and pressure.
No, metamorphic rock is not sedimentary; those are two different types.
Magmatic fluids coming from the intrusive rock may also take part in the metamorphic reactions.
Heat, along with applied pressures, either from depth of burial or from tectonic forces on rock.
how is metamorphic rock different than intrusive rock
From increased pressure and/or heat. Fluid removal results in hydrous mineral destruction and non-hydrous mineral creation, resulting in rock of a different mineralogy. A metamorphic rock can be further metamorphosed by additional heat and/or pressure into a rock with a higher degree of metamorphism. An example of this would be the metamorphic rock slate changing into the metamorphic rock phyllite.
The common structure of a metamorphic rock is that there are several pieces of different types of minerals, sand, rock, or glass.
No
a sedimentary rock, a sedimentary rock is one that has sediments or minerals that create layers this rock is formed when preasure is put upon it.
