Heat and pressure can cause some rocks to change into different types of rocks?
sedimentary rocks
What are 2 things that can change rocks to other types of rocks?
There are three main types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and composites. Igneous rocks are formed when sedimentary or composite rocks experience extremes of heat and pressure. Sedimentary rocks are formed when smaller particles are overlaid for extended periods of time. Composite rocks are formed a mixture of elements under pressure.
What types of rocks can become igneous rocks?
All rocks can become igneous rocks. With weathering and erosion, an igneous rock can become a sediment. Then with compaction and cementation, it can become a sedimentary rock. With heat and pressure, it will turn into a metamorphic rock. Or it can melt and turn into an igneous rock. There are many more ways rocks can change types... that is the rock cycle.
How does erosion change the appearance of rocks?
by different types of erosion, arbraison, hydraulic action and another one but i forgot what its called :L
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 the sedimentary rocks change into other types of rocks?

Push factors. Magration. Pull factors
What kinds of rocks change when they come in contact with magma?
All types of rocks.
How do sedimentary rocks change to other rock types?
Sedimentary rocks are formed by compacting and cementation and change over time into metamorphic rocks by heat and pressure
How does water cause weathering of rocks in mountain ranges?
Three types of weathing
Which of the types of rocks can only be formed by the chemical change of another rock?
metamorphic
What types of rocks can only be formed by the chemical change of another rock?
metamorphic
What do rocks do under heat and pressure?
rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
Describe the changes that occur in the rock cycle?
In the rock cycle, rocks change into differant types of rocks over time. For example, igneous rocks might break into sediments that form sedimentary rocks.
