A metamorphic rock.
A metamorphic rock.
When sedimentary rock is changed by heat and pressure, it forms metamorphic rock. This process is known as metamorphism, where the existing rock undergoes changes in mineral composition and texture without melting.
A metamorphic rock forms by heat and pressure
The original rock that was changed into marble by the addition of heat and pressure is likely limestone. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone under high heat and pressure conditions.

A "metamorphic" rock forms.
heat and pressure
When sedimentary rock is changed by heat and pressure, it forms metamorphic rock. This process, known as metamorphism, alters the mineral composition, texture, and structure of the original sedimentary rock. Some common examples of metamorphic rocks formed from sedimentary rocks include marble from limestone and slate from shale.
