What Metamorphic rock forms as a result?
heat and pressure
Forms as a result of heat and pressure?
I think it's metamorphic rock
What rock results from heat and pressure melting rocks into magma?
Metamorphic rock can result from exposure to heat and/or pressure, but it may take a specific range of temperatures or specific range of pressure to turn a rock into one. Heat and pressure alone does not necessarily create a metamorphic rock from another rock type.
Is metamorphic rock the rock of heat and pressure?
The rock that gets heat+pressure to turn into a metamorphic rock.
Do the changes in rocks due to heat and pressure result in the formation of metamorphic rocks?
Yes. A rock is said to be metamorphosed when it undergoes a change due to heat and/or pressure.
What is the def Metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock is rock that has changed as a result of constant heat, pressure, or both. One good example is granite.
What changes igneous or sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock?
Heat, pressure, or transfer of elements through high temperature solutions.
Heat and pressure creates what rock?
a metamorphic rock is created by heat and pressure!
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.
Can a metamorphic rock change again after already being changed once?
Yes. There are degrees of rock metamorphism, where a metamorphic rock can be altered into another metamorphic rock by increased pressure and heat.
What is rock formrd by heat or pressure?
Rock formed by heat and pressure becomes transformed and altered, such rock is called Metamorphic Rock.
When can heat change rock to metamorphic rock?
with heat and pressure
