What are two ways sedimentary and igneous rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks?
Increase the pressure and temperature by burying them; or heat them with an igneous intrusion.
One of two ways that sedimentary and igneous rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks?
sediment
List four ways geologists classify rocks?
sedimentary,metormorphic , igneous .........
Is lava cooling one of the ways sedimentary rock is formed?
No that is how igneous rocks are formed
What type of rock is an igneous rock?
Igneous rocks are usually classified first by their color index. The color index is separated into four categories. Felsic rocks are the lightest and are composed of mostly quartz and potassium feldspar. Intermediate rocks are the second lightest and are made up of mostly plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene, amphibole, and biotite. Mafic rocks are made up of plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene, and amphibole. Ultramafic is made up of mostly olivine, with pyroxene and amphibole.
What are 3 ways igneous rocks are used and which one?
the 3 ways igneous rocks are used are in schools,houses and roads. this is because they are hard,igneous rocks make useful road building materials
What are the three ways that igneous rocks form or differ?
Three ways ingenuous rocks form are by magma cooling below, at or beneath the surface. Magma forms when rock is heated, changes composition and/or pressure is released.
What are ways sedimentary rock forms?
Three main ways and are classified accordingly. Igneous rocks form from molten material called magma.

What types of rocks can become igneous rocks?
All rocks can become igneous rocks. With weathering and erosion, an igneous rock can become a sediment. Then with compaction and cementation, it can become a sedimentary rock. With heat and pressure, it will turn into a metamorphic rock. Or it can melt and turn into an igneous rock. There are many more ways rocks can change types... that is the rock cycle.
Is lava cooling one of the ways sedimentary rock is formed?
No that is how igneous rocks are formed
Which is NOT one of the ways in which an igneous rock is emplaced into pre-existing rocks?
2*2
How do igneous rocks for?
I think you mean form, so, they are cooled magma and are classified 3 ways: mineral composition (aka color) texture, or if they are made internally or externally
What are two ways you could identify igneous rock?
When it has holes and small rocks inside the rock
