the word "metamorphic"is derived from greek which wean changing form.Therefore metamorphic rocks are the rocks which are formed when one type of rock changes into another type after having been subjected under intense heat or pressure.the process of changing one rock type to another rock is calle rock cycle
Shale is a sedimentary rock, not a metamorphic rock.
Yes, any type of rock can become a metamorphic rock through the process of heat and pressure transforming its mineral composition and texture. This includes igneous, sedimentary, and even existing metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks can transform into other metamorphic rocks through the process of recrystallization under high pressure and temperature conditions. The specific type of rock it transforms into will depend on the composition of the original rock and the conditions of metamorphism.
A metamorphic rock changes from one form to another by intense heat or pressue. The parent rock, or protolith, is the rock that undergoes change. It can be any rock type, sedimentary, igneous, and even metamorphic.
it is ether metamorphic or igneous but I'm pretty sure its a metamorphic rock

All rock types, igneous, sedimentary, and even metamorphic can be altered to new metamorphic rock.

Schistose Structure metamorphic rocks are known as foliated metamorphic rock.
Daimond is not a metamorphic rock because it is a mineral.
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
The protolith of a metamorphic rock can be any pre-existing rock type, such as shale, limestone, basalt, or granite. The type of metamorphic rock that forms from a protolith depends on factors like temperature, pressure, and the mineral composition of the protolith.
Igneus is a type of rock. Metamorphic, too. Sedimentary.
