How is the formation of igneous rock different from that of metamorphic rock?
okIgneous rocks are called fire rocks and are formed either underground or above ground. Underground, they are formed when the melted rock, called magma, deep within the earth becomes trapped in small pockets. As these pockets of magma cool slowly underground, the magma becomes igneous rocks.Igneous rocks are also formed when volcanoes erupt, causing the magma to rise above the earth's surface. When magma appears above the earth, it is called lava. Igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground.Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have "morphed" into another kind of rock. These rocks were once igneous or sedimentary rocks. How do sedimentary and igneous rocks change? The rocks are under tons and tons of pressure, which fosters heat build up, and this causes them to change. If you exam metamorphic rock samples closely, you'll discover how flattened some of the grains in the rock are.
What causes differences in igneous rocks?
One forms in magma underground (intrusive);And the other forms above ground in lava (extrusive)
What types of rocks are formed above ground?

Are sedimentary rocks changed by underground pressure?
no
Where is sedimentary rocks usually found?
Underground
Are sedimentary rock underground?
Sedemintary rocks are rocks that are droned in layers that are buried by the layer above them. So, the answer is yes excluding the top layer
