What two geological processes are involved in changing a metamorphic rock to an igneous rock?
The two geological processes involved in changing a metamorphic rock to an igneous rock are melting and solidification. When a metamorphic rock is subjected to high temperatures, it can melt to form magma. This molten material can then rise to the surface, where it cools and solidifies, resulting in the formation of igneous rock.
What rock is formed when sandstone is exposed to heat and pressure?
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)
What must happen to a rock for it to become a metamorphic rock?
It must melt.
When Sedimentary rocks melt what kind of rock is formed?
when sedimentary melts the heat squeezes the rock then it becomes a metamorphic rock.
How does metamorphic rock change into igneous rock?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.

How can metamorphic rock become magma?
If the metamorphic rock becomes hot enough it can melt.
Which metamorphic rock changes to an igneous rock?
Any metamorphic rock can melt and recrystallize and become an igneous rock.
How does igneous rock change to metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock which is exposed to increasing heat and pressure from various sources can eventually melt. If this melt then solidifies, it has become igneous rock.
Can a metamorphic rock go back into and igneous rock?
Yes. A metamorphic rock can melt and the re-solidify as an igneous rock.
What rock is it when it experiences heat and pressure and does not melt?
Metamorphic rock
What rock is formed when sandstone is exposed to heat and pressure?
Igneous rocks-after having the chance to cool down after a melt (metamorphic rocks need pressure as well)

What must happen to a rock for it to become a metamorphic rock?
It must melt.
What happens when you melt a metamorphic rock?
it turns into sand
How can a metamorphic rock change into another rock?
Yes. A metamorphic rock can be metamorphosed into a higher-grade metamorphic rock. It can be weather into sediment and re-lithified into a sedimentary rock, or it can melt then solidify to become an igneous rock.
Can metamorphic rocks melt to give igneous rock?
yes
