metamorphic rocks of course, a few examples are hornfels or a soap stone.

What is it called when a rocks particles come of and make another rock from the particles?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the fragments of other rocks
What is a parent mineral?
the material which smaller rocks and other minerals come from.
What are small pieces of material that come from rocks or other living things?
It is Aluminium.
Why rocks are broken down?
Rocks can be broken up by them being moved in quick flowing rivers or streams. If there are other rocks in there, they may hit each other and bits will come off.
What type f rocks come from living things?
the type of rocks that don't come from living things is .
What is nonclastic rock?
clastic rocks are rocks that are broken off other rocks or sediments of rocks and come from many rocks through erosion nonfoliated is the opposite

When rocks come into molten rocks?
igneous
What rock is made of other rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are made from weathered down materials, often rocks, so they can be argued that they come from other rocks. Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks; these rocks go under extreme heat and pressure. In conclusion, metamorphic rocks are definitely made from other rocks, and sedimentary rocks are sometimes made from other rocks. Sedimentary rocks are always made of other rocks,extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks as well as metamorphic rocks are weathered and eroded by agents like water , wind and sunlight and are stratified and compacted to form sedimentary rocks. Hence, even if metamorphic rocks are made from rocks, sedimentary rocks are definitely made from other rocks. Eg: sedimentary rock shale gets metamorphosed into slate and further metamorphosed into shcist which is the parent material of granite which can be effected by agents of weathering and erosion into sedimentary rocks again.
What does the second do for curling?
The second shoots (or "throws") his team's 3rd and 4th rocks, and sweeps for all the other players' rocks. The second is usually asked to throw draws (rocks that are supposed to come to rest in the house to score points) after the lead throws guards (rocks in front of the house for other rocks to hide behind)
Where did the small grains of rocks come from?
Older rocks.
Where are sedimentary rocks from?
Sedimentary rocks come from deposited sediment that are cemented together (usually in water) to form these types of rocks. The rocks are made out of weared-down shells, rocks, inclusions (rock particles) and sand as well as pebbles or other particles. Hope that helps.
Why do rocks come up in dirt?
When the Earth shifts beneath us, it pushes these rocks from under the dirt. The dirt is formed from parent rocks under the dirt. The movements cause vibrations and the rocks, as well as other things, move upward.
Do sedimentary rocks come from the center of the earth?
No. Sedimentary rocks form relatively close to the surface. No rocks that we have access to come from the planet's center.
