How are sedimentary and metamorphic rocks similar and different?

Answer 1

They are both rocks.

Sedimentary can contain metamorphic rocks.

and vice versa.

Answer 2

a sedimentary rock can change by heat and pressure to form a metamorphic rock, the metamorphic rock then can melt and later cool to form an igneous rock, the igneous rock then could be broken into fragments by weathering and erode away

Answer 3

There are essentially three stages in rock formation. Igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Sedimentary eventually becomes metamorphic when it reaches a point, where over millions of years it has "metamorphosed" enough due to tons of pressure and extreme heat beneath the earth's surface. You may sometimes have trouble distinguishing between the two if the rock is not still sedimentary and not quite metamorphic.

Answer 4

a sedimentry rock is layeyered and metomorphic isn't hope this helped

Answer 5

sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks are both formed by pressure I think
