Which process changes sedimentary rock into igneous?

The process that changes sedimentary rock into igneous rock is called "melting." When sedimentary rock is subjected to high temperatures and pressures deep within the Earth's crust, it can melt and re-crystallize into igneous rock. This process occurs in the presence of magma and can lead to the formation of new igneous rock.
