What type of rock is formed around the outside of igneous intrusions?
Igneous rocks can be changed to sedimentary rocks outside of igneous intrusions. This is due to silt built up and weathering.
What processes take place when igneous rocks are changed to sedimentary?
compacting and cementing
How many types of rocks?
There are lots of different types of rocks in the world.
What three types of rocks can be metamorphosed into metamorphic rocks?
The 3 basic rock types are igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks, which can all be changed or metamorphosed by heat and pressure.
How does a sedimentary rock contain pieces of igneous rocks?
Igneous rock pieces can stick together through cementation to form sedimentary rocks.
How are metamorphic rocks igneous rock and sedimentary rocks different?
Metamorphic rocks originate as igneous and sedimentary rocks, but have been changed by heat and pressure.
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
One of two ways that sedimentary and igneous rocks can be changed into metamorphic rocks?

Can Metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks.?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Name the 3 kinds of rocks?

Can metamorphic rocks form form igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
What is formed when igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks are changed due to heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rock
How do igneous rocks from into a sedimentary rock?
igneous rocks mix with metamorphic rocks and they combine together to make a sedimentary rock. the three themes of science rocks are metamorphic,igneous, and sedimentary.
What are 3 major rock types?
Igneous Rocks,Sedimentary Rocks,Metamorphic Rocks.
What rock is igneous or sedimentary rock that has been changed by extreme pressure or heat?
