What else can I help you with?
When heat and presure are applied to a rock what kind of rock results?
Exposure to intense heat and/or pressure can result in changes to a rock's mineralogy, crystal structure, and mineral alignment. Such changes can create a metamorphic rock.
What layer in the Earth changes sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock by heat and pressure?
heat and pressure
What changes a sedimentry rock into a metamorphic rock?
heat and pressure
What is it called when a rock changes?
Metamorphism....A metamorphic rock is a rock formed when it undergoes chemical reactions,tremendous heat and great pressure to form a new kind of rock from an existing one.
How do you change a igneous rock to a metamorphic rock?
you expose the rock to extreme heat or pressure such that the rock changes.
How do heat and pressure change sedimentary rock?
A metamorphic rock is formed when sedimentary rock is subjected to heat and pressure!
What forms as heat or pressure cause changes in an existing rock?
A "metamorphic" rock forms.
What are some changes that occur when a sedimentary rock changes into a metamorphic rock?
To change a sedimentary rock to a metamorphic rock, you change it by time,heat, and pressure.
What type of rock forms as heat and or pressure causes changes?
Granite
How does heat in the form of friction and pressure affect the rock cycle?
The heat (in the form of friction and pressure) affects the rock by performing a process called menstrual which changes the material of the rock, but not the mass.
What changes igneous or sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock?
Igneous or sedimentary rocks are transformed into metamorphic rocks through high pressure, temperature, or both. This process, known as metamorphism, occurs deep within the Earth's crust where rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure, causing their mineral composition and texture to change without melting.
How does metamorphic form?
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
