How does a metamorphic rock form into magma?
Metamorphic rock could become magma by collisions involving an oceanic plates. During subduction,any rock carried on the plate would return to the mantle and melt,forming magma
Rock can become magma again as a result of?
erosion
When rock in earth's mantle melt what does it become?
Melted rock in the Earth's mantle is called magma.
What type of rock can become magma?
Cooled and solidified magma that rests below the surface becomes intrusive igneous rock. When magma is erupted onto the surface, then cools and solidifies, it becomes extrusive igneous rock. The major rock classification for cooled magma or lava would be IGNEOUS.
What is the relationship between plate tectonics and the Rock cycle?
Volcanoes tend to form where plates collide. They are the mechanisms by which magma reaches the surface of the Earth; magma may also flow to Earth's surface between the moving plates at a divergent boundary. Called lava on Earth's surface, it cools and forms igneous rock. Igneous rock is a type of rock in the rock cycle. Through weathering, igneous rocks can become sediment, which eventually can become sedimentary rock. This sedimentary rock, or the original igneous rock, can also become metamorphic rock when exposed to heat and pressure beneath Earth's surface. Metamorphic rocks in turn melt and become magma. This magma plus additional magma from theEarth's interior begin the cycle again.
In what order does magma become a rock?
Magma forms from heated rock--it cools--minerals form--when totally solidified it is a rock.
How sediments can become igneous rock?
The sedimentary rock melts,which causes magma. When the magma cools it becomes an igneous rock.
What does magma become when it cools and hardens?
rock
Can the interaction between magma and surrounding rock cause changes in the rock?
Yes. The rock will get hot, of course, and some pieces of rock will become magma itself.
How does rock turns into magma?
Magma is essentially molten rock inside earth, possibly with some trapped gasses. To become rock the magma simply cools and solidifies, essentially freezing.
How does a metamorphic rock become magma?
Extreme heat.
Does sedimentary rock have to become metamorphic rock before it can become magma?
go to school nuff said
How could a metamorphic rock go to a igneous rock?
If a metamorphic rock were to reach the mantle and melt, it would become magma. If that magma were then to recrystallize it would be an igneous rock.
How can a metomorphic rock become an igneous rock?
Metamorphic rocks underground melt to become magma. When a volcano erupts, magma flows out of it. As the lava cools it hardens and becomes igneous rock.
How does magma turn into?
Magma is essentially molten rock inside earth, possibly with some trapped gasses. To become rock the magma simply cools and solidifies, essentially freezing.
How can metamorphic rock become magma?
If the metamorphic rock becomes hot enough it can melt.
How does a metamorphic rock form into magma?
