Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
It's called the rock cycle.
metamorphic
The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.

The Rock Cycle.
metamorphosis
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.
Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
Those are metamorphic rocks, changed from one type to another by extreme pressure.
yes it can- metamorphic has to change into one type of rock after it is changed from another.
It can be any type of rock. If heat and pressure deep in the Earth changed it, it is a metamorphic rock. If sediments of sand or other rocks compacted/cemented together, it's a sedimentary rock. If magma from a volcano cools, (on the outside of a volcano) it's an igneous rock.
the rock cycle
Yes. Igneous rocks have been charged from other rocks by melting followed by solidification. Sedimentary rocks have been changed from other rocks by weathering, erosion, deposition, and consolidation. Metamorphic rocks have been changed from other rocks by pressure and heat.
lime stone
A type of Rock derived from pre-existing rocks that have been changed by HEAT AND PRESSURE.
A "metamorphic" rock has done this.
rocks can change from one type of rock to another, or not change at all
the word "metamorphic"is derived from greek which wean changing form.Therefore metamorphic rocks are the rocks which are formed when one type of rock changes into another type after having been subjected under intense heat or pressure.the process of changing one rock type to another rock is calle rock cycle
