How can metamorphic rock become magma?
If the metamorphic rock becomes hot enough it can melt.
Which metamorphic rock changes to an igneous rock?
Any metamorphic rock can melt and recrystallize and become an igneous rock.
How does igneous rock change to metamorphic 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.
Can a metamorphic rock go back into and igneous rock?
Yes. A metamorphic rock can melt and the re-solidify as an igneous rock.
What rock is it when it experiences heat and pressure and does not melt?
Metamorphic rock
How does metamorphic rock change into 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.
What rock is formed when sandstone is exposed to heat and pressure?
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)
How does metamorphic change to igneous?

What type of rock is formed when other rocks go through intense heat and pressure but do NOT melt?
Metamorphic.. I would love it if you would read your book and take an interest in learning. Learning is a gift and if you don't know how to learn or are to lazy to learn then you are wasting hundreds of thousands if not millions of years of evolution.
What must happen to a rock for it to become a metamorphic rock?
It must melt.
How can a metamorphic rock change into another rock?
Yes. A metamorphic rock can be metamorphosed into a higher-grade metamorphic rock. It can be weather into sediment and re-lithified into a sedimentary rock, or it can melt then solidify to become an igneous rock.
What happens when minerals in igneous metamorphic and sedimentary rock melt?
The rocks will melt when they reach the proper temperature, usually thousands of degrees.
