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.

What is basalt sedimentary ignous or metamorphic?
actually, it truly depends on the type of rock the metamorphic rock formed from. in other words, if it formed from a rock that held basalt in it, the rock has basalt in it. remember that a metamorphic rock can be formed by more than two different types of rock (such as metamorphic quartz, slate, "fool's gold", plus granite). it does not matter which class the metamorphic rock formed from (but if a m. rock such as m. quartz, there is more likely a chance of finding a trace of basalt), as long as it formed from two different class of rock (this does not always apply, for there can be a metamorphic rock made from two or more metamorphic rocks). i would get into geodes...... but that's another answer. :)
Is graphite igneous sedimentary or metamorphic?
Graphite is a metamorphic rock. It is formed from the metamorphism of organic sedimentary rocks, such as coal, under high temperature and pressure.
What is an example of metamorphic igneous and sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rock: Marble, formed from the metamorphism of limestone. Igneous rock: Granite, formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. Sedimentary rock: Sandstone, formed from the compaction and cementation of sand grains.
Is basalt a metamorphic rock?
No, basalt is not a metamorphic rock. Basalt is an igneous rock that forms from cooling and solidification of lava. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to high pressure, heat, or fluids.
What two rock types are formed by transfer of heat?
Igneous an Metamorphic are the two types of rock that are formed with the help of heat .
Are metamorphic rock only made out of from igneous?
No, metamorphic can be formed by either igneous or sedimetary rock.

Is a slate a igneous rock?
No, slate is a metamorphic rock that is formed by shale
What rock can only be formed from sedimenta rock or igneous rock?
Metamorphic rocks. With proper heat and pressure sedimentary and igneous rocks can form metamorphic rocks.
How does metamorphic rock formation compare to igneous rock formation?
Igneous rocks are formed in and around volcanos, metamorphic rocks are formed by the partial melting of rocks deep underground.
How does metamorphic form?
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
What type is rock is formed if rock undergoing a metamorphic change melts?
igneous
How Metamorphic rock form?
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
What are the three types of rock and their formation?
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
What type of rocks are metamorphic rocks formed from?
Metamorphic rocks are formed from existing rocks that undergo changes in temperature, pressure, or chemical reactions due to processes like heat and pressure from deep within the Earth's crust. These existing rocks can be sedimentary, igneous, or even other metamorphic rocks that get transformed into a new type of rock.
What is metamorphic rock forms from?
Metamorphic rock is formed when Igneous rock and Sedimentary rock go through intense heat and pressure.
Is obsidian rock metamorphic rock sedimentary or igneous?
Obsidian is an extrusive igneous rock, formed from rapidly cooling lava.
