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?

Sedimentary rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure, typically from tectonic forces or deep burial. Igneous rocks can also be metamorphosed through increased temperature and pressure, causing mineral recrystallization and the development of new textures and structures.


What are two ways in which glaciers erode Earth's surface?

When glaciers form they scrape earth's surface as they advance. Also when glaciers melt it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land creating various land forms.


Explain 2 ways Igneous Rocks Form?

Igneous rocks form when magma cools and solidifies either underground (intrusive rocks) or on the Earth's surface (extrusive rocks). Intrusive rocks cool slowly, allowing large crystals to form, while extrusive rocks cool quickly, resulting in tiny crystals or glassy textures.


What are some ways the earths surface has changed over time?

Natural factors such as volcanic eruptions, changes in the Earth's orbit, and the amount of energy released from the Sun have affected the Earth's climate. Human activates associated with the Industrial Revolution have also changed the composition of the atmosphere and therefore are likely influencing the Earth's climate. For over the past 200 years, the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and deforestation have caused the concentrations of heat-trapping "Greenhouse Gases" to increase significantly in our atmosphere. These gases prevent heat from escaping to space, a bit like the glass panels of a greenhouse.

How did rocks get formed?

There are 3 main ways for them to be formed. Sedimentary rocks are formed from dirt and sand, and can be found in rivers. Igneous rocks are made from molten magma or lava. Metamorphic rocks are made from already existing rocks, and are changed by pressure or temperature.
