How do metamorphic rocks form from igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks?

If any kind of rock-igneous or sedimentary- is far enough beneath the surface, the pressure can change it into a metamorphic rock. Also heat - the effects differ. It doesn't have to be ever so deeply buried, geologically, since metamorphism is usually a orogenic process in the affected sedimentary rock.


What processes help change metamorphic and igneous rock to sedimentary rocks?

Denudation, Weathering, Erosion, Diagnesis.


What does slate change into when it is metamorphosed?

Many kinds of rocks both of igneous and sedimentary nature eg; Limestone (sedimentary ) to marble or granite or diorite (igneous) to gneiss.


Igneous rock can be transformed into metamorphic rock through what?

Usually it is sedimentary rock that is changed into metamorphic - however it is entirely possible for igneous rock to become metamorphic as well. Metamorphic means different form, and in the geological since it mean rock that has been changed by heat and pressure. Now there isn't too much that can be done to igneous rock to change it chemically, by heat and pressure. But it can undergo physical distortions.


How igneous rock changes to sedimentary rock?

Sedimentary rock to change to Igneous rock by applying heat and pressure , which creates Metamorphic rock . Next , Metamorphic rock turns to Magma because it melts . Lastly you have to let the Magma cool and it becomes an Igneous rock . That is how Sedimentary rock changes to Igneous rock .

What process must take place to change igneous or sedimentary rock to metamorphic rock?

Heat and pressure


How do rocks change from metamorphic or sedimentary rocks to igneous rocks?

Metamorphic and sedimentary rocks can change into igneous rocks through the process of melting and cooling. When subjected to intense heat and pressure, the rocks can melt and form magma. This magma can then cool and solidify, forming igneous rocks.


When igneous and sedimentary rocks change then what happened next?

Can Sedimentary rock cannot change into igneous rock?

Sedimentary rock can change into igneous rock, but not directly. The process involves first transforming sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock through heat and pressure. Then, if the metamorphic rock melts, it can become magma, which, upon cooling, crystallizes into igneous rock. Thus, while sedimentary rock does not directly become igneous rock, it can ultimately contribute to the formation of igneous rock through these intermediate steps.

Can igneous rock be formed into a metamorphic rock?

An igneous rock can be metamorphosed (changed) into a metamorphic rock but will no longer be an igneous rock. An igneous body can be intruded into metamorphic rocks but will still be an igneous rock that is different from the surrounding metamorphic rocks. Ethier answer work depending on how the question is read.
