∙ 10y agoMarble is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock made of carbonate minerals, particularly calcite. It is formed by the metamorphism or limestone. Gneiss is a foliated metamorphic rock made of silicate minerals such as quartz and feldspars, and micas. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Pumice is easily broken down because of it contains numerous air pockets. The metamorphic forms of pumice are gneiss, schist and slate.
Schist is the highest grade metamorphic rock of those listed in the question.
The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms magma.
Conglomerate is a clastic sedimentary rock that has rounded pebbles included among its clasts. Gneiss is a high-grade foliate metamorphic rock characterized by alternating light and dark bands. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Amphibolite is a metamorphic rock. It forms when basaltic rock is heated to high temperatures under pressure. Without the added pressure the basaltic rock that would be yielded is green schist.

Changes in the structure, texture, or mineralogy of existing rocks will create a metamorphic rock. Metamorphism can result from the effects of heat and/or pressure, or from the addition of ions from heated fluids. Examples of metamorphic rock are slate, schist, and gneiss.

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.......
yes if you get a fourth grade paper and its called marvelous makeovers the answere is yes
Mica is formed by chemicals combining their industrial forces with fresh water and turning into thin breakable sheet rock.
Contact metamorphic rock forms at such boundaries, as the minerals in the rock change due to the increase in temperature or the influx of heated fluids.
A metamorphic rock forms by heat and pressure
Foliated rocks have layers in them. We often refer to the layers as Banding.
