Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks can be changed by high temperatures and pressure, and the resultant rock is called metamorphic, because its form has been changed.

What rocks are changed by high tempuratures and high pressure?
Metamorphic.
How are igneous rocks changed to metamorphic rocks?
By high pressure and temperature
Is metamorphic rocks not natural?
Metamorphic rock is natural. It is rock that has been changed by exposure to high temperature or high pressure. "Metamorphic" means "changed."
What rocks are formed from high temperature and pressures?
Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks can be changed by high temperatures and pressure, and the resultant rock is called metamorphic, because its form has been changed.
Will a active volcano erupt?
It depends on high tempatures or small tempatures. If high tempatures,magma may rise to the surface. If low tempatures,it won't do anything.
High pressure and high temperature cause rocks to?
High temperature and pressure can cause rocks to change their forms. This is known as metamorphic.High pressure and high temperature can cause rocks to change forms. This is known as metamorphic.
What rocks are changed by high tempertures and high pressure?
Rocks are although hard can be changed by those factors you say.Temperature can make the rock break which is due to the fact that when the rock is subjected to cooling or when rain occurs it breaks,so here,the rain is also needed for that. Similarly,high pressure can make the rock rolled away and far away which results in its disintegrations and it at last becomes sand.
Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressure underground?
Metamorphic rocks are produced by changing other rocks with temperature and pressure underground.
Why are foliated rocks made from directed pressure and not confining pressure?
list all the rocks associated with high grade metamorphism
How does pressure help make metamorphic rocks?
pressure helps the metamorphic with the high temprature or pressure
Which type of rocks are produced from other type of rocks under high temperature and pressure?
Metamorphic rock can result from the exposure of existing igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rock to high temperatures, high pressure, or a combination of both.
Which type of rocks are produced from other types of rocks under high temperature and pressure?
metamorphic
