Granite is an igneous rock and gneiss is a metamorphic rock.
What is the only kind of rock that can form directly from magma?
By definition. A sedimentary rock is formed from sediments, chemical, organic, or clastic. A metamorphic rock has undergone a change in mineral alignment or mineral composition due to heat and/or pressure. An igneous rock forms from solidification of magma via cooling.
Is quartz igneaus?
quartz is a mineral, not a rock, so it can't be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic
Is azurite igneous metamorphic or sedimentary?
Sedimentary.
Why is there no sedimentary rock deep in the earths crust?
Sedimentary rocks get transformed into metamorphic and eventually igneous rocks in deep earth's crust.
How do metamorphic rocks change into igneous rock?
The metamorphic rock melts into magma then cools into igneous rock
How metamorphic rock can change to igneous rock?

Definition of a metamorphic rock?

How do igneous rocks change into metamorphic rocks?

What can an igneous rock be changed into?

By a process of melting and re-solidification of the melt produced..
What kind of rock can change into sedimentary or metamorphic rock?
Igneous Rock
Can igneous rock be formed into a metamorphic rock?
An igneous rock can be metamorphosed (changed) into a metamorphic rock but will no longer be an igneous rock. An igneous body can be intruded into metamorphic rocks but will still be an igneous rock that is different from the surrounding metamorphic rocks. Ethier answer work depending on how the question is read.
How can an igneous or metamorphic rock change into a seditmentary rock?
Weathering and erosion.
How does metamorphic rock change into igneous rock?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
How could an igneous rock change to a metamorphic rock?
Under influence of pressure and temperature, a rock can change, the process is called deformation or metamorphism, the result is a metamorphic rock. This can happen to igneous rocks as well.
