What metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava?
Any rock which melts becomes magma if it is underground, or lava if it emerges on to the surface.
Why would you expect a metamorphic rock to form at a temperature lower then the melting point of rock?
If the rock melts the resulting rock type would be igneous rather than metamorphic.
Why are fossils in metamorphic rock either destroyed or distorted?
Because the pressure and heat applied to it during its transformation into metamorphic rock melts it into magma and distorts the fossils from the sedimentary stage
What rock is melted by heat and pressure?
Magma is rock that useally comes from a volcana it melts due to the high pressure and heat
What changes as a parent rock becomes a metamorphic rock?
- Cause , When The Magma Melts A Rock It Turns Into A Big Rock With A DIFFERENT Size And Shape :) Hoped I HELP YOU !
What conserved when metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava?
matter
Metamorphic rock melts and turn into lava what is conserved?
matter
When metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava, is conserved?
matter
When metamorphic rock melts turns into?
Metamorphic rock that melts turns to magma. This only becomes lava if it is erupted to the surface in a volcano.
When metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava is matter conserved?
Yes, this is a simple physical change and matter is always conserved in these. In fact, matter is always conserved except in nuclear reactions where the sum of matter and energy is conserved.
What metamorphic rock melts and turns into lava?
Any rock which melts becomes magma if it is underground, or lava if it emerges on to the surface.
How does the metamorphic rock change into a igneous rock?
metamorphic rock melts into magma and volcano erupts. lava hardens and cools
How can a metamorphic rock turn into sedimentary rock and then back to metamorphic?
metamorphic rock melts turns into lava,lava cools turns into igneous rock,igneous rock is weathered and eroded into sediment,sediment turns into sedimentary rocksedimentary rock gets heated and squeezed forms metamorphic rockcycle continues.......
Could a metamorphic rock turn into a sedimentry rock and then back to metamorphic?
yes eventually but there are steps:metamorphic rock melts turns into lava,lava cools turns into igneous rock,igneous rock is weathered and eroded into sediment,sediment turns into sedimentary rocksedimentary rock gets heated and squeezed forms metamorphic rockcycle continues.......
What rock is lava?
metamorphic
What will form if sedimentary rock melts?
metamorphic rock
Can heat form an igneous rock or a metamorphic rock?
metamorphic because it melts the rock and forms another
