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.
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms what substance?
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms magma.
What rock is igneous or sedimentary rock that has been changed by extreme pressure or heat?
The rock that has been changed by extreme pressure or heat is called metamorphic rock. It can form from igneous, sedimentary, or existing metamorphic rocks that undergo changes in temperature and pressure deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
Is breccia a sedimentary metamorphic or igneous rock?
Yes. In the rock cycle, any sedimentary rock can be transformed into a metamorphic rock due to deep burial where the rock is changed by the earth's high temperature and pressure, an exposure to a plutonic intrusion, where rocks such as granite are formed, or any other process where heat and pressure alter the composition, appearance, and classification of a rock. An igneous rock can turn into a metamorphic rock or a sedimentary rock. A metamorphic rock can turn into an igneous rock or a sedimentary rock, and a sedimentary rock can turn into an igneous rock or a metamorphic rock.
Which type of rocks can turn into an igneous rock through the rock cycle?
A metamorphic rock can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Or, a sedimentary rock (or sediments) can melt into magma and then cool and crystallize to become an igneous rock. Also, an igneous rock itself can undergo this process of melting and cooling as well.
Can igneous rock be formed into a metamorphic rock?

Can an igneous rock be transformed diretly into a metamorphic rock?
Yes they can with intense head and pressure. Please check the rock cycle.
How metamorphic rock turns into igneous?
Metamorphic rock becomes igneous rock when it is melted, then solidifies.
How can an igneous rock become a metamorphic?
A metamorphic rock can become a igneous rock by melting and cooling
Igneous rock can be transformed into metamorphic rock through what?
Usually it is sedimentary rock that is changed into metamorphic - however it is entirely possible for igneous rock to become metamorphic as well. Metamorphic means different form, and in the geological since it mean rock that has been changed by heat and pressure. Now there isn't too much that can be done to igneous rock to change it chemically, by heat and pressure. But it can undergo physical distortions.
Which metamorphic rock changes to an igneous rock?
Any metamorphic rock can melt and recrystallize and become an igneous rock.
How do metamorphic rocks change into igneous rock?
The metamorphic rock melts into magma then cools into igneous rock
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms what substance?
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms magma.
Are metamorphic rock only made out of from igneous?
No, metamorphic can be formed by either igneous or sedimetary rock.
Can a metamorphic rock go back into and igneous rock?
Yes. A metamorphic rock can melt and the re-solidify as an igneous rock.
How metamorphic rock can change to igneous rock?
if the igneous rock is put under heat and pressure it turns into a metamorphic
Is a seashell an igneous sedimentary or metamorphic rock?
