What process changes the space between the grains in a metamorphic rock?
compaction
What do metamorphic rocks with a non-foliated texture show metamorphic changes involve?
mineral grains arranging into layers.
What is a rock with long flat mineral grains?
A metamorphic rock
Is sandstone igneous or sedimentary or metamorphic?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock which is made up of sand grains which have been compressed to form a rock that has very weak bonds holding the grains together. The grains themselves can be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic depending on which rock the grains were eroded from.

Metamorphic rocks have their grains arranged in parallel layers or bands that are said to be foliated.

What type of grains does metamorphic rock have?
Metamorphic rock may have coarse, flattened, or aligned mineral grains.
Which process squeezes fluids from between individual grains?
Erosion is the process that squeezes fluids between individual grains. This is known as a long process.
What kind of metamorphic has its minerals grains arrange in planes or band?
