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 the process through which rocks change from one type to another. This process includes melting, metamorphism, uplift, weathering, and burial. Metamorphism is specifically the change of pre-existing rock into new rock through pressure and temperature.
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 process is called metamorphism, occurring through the rock cycle.
Any rock can undergo metamorphism, be it sedimentary, igneous or even the transformation of one type of metamorphic rock to another.
Metamorphic rock is the result of the transformation of an existing rock type, the protolith, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form".
Every time one type of energy is converted into another type of energy, you can call it an "energy transformation".
Any rock can undergo metamorphism, be it sedimentary, igneous or even the transformation of one type of metamorphic rock to another.
It is called the Rock Cycle.
The process is always ongoing, but a complete transformation from one type to another could take millions of years or more.

The radio signal itself, of course, is not an energy transformation - energy transformation means that energy is changed from one type to another. There is an energy transformation when the radio signal is created, and another one when it is absorbed.

The rock cycle.
The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.
rocks can change from one type of rock to another, or not change at all
