What kind of rock is forms when heat and pressure of mountain building change sedimentary rock?
The sedimentary rock gets transformed into metamorphic rock under the heat and pressure of mountain-building processes. Examples of metamorphic rocks formed from sedimentary rocks include marble from limestone and schist from shale.
Which type of rock change due to heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rocks change due to heat and pressure. These rocks are transformed from existing rocks that are subjected to high temperatures and pressures, causing them to recrystallize into new forms with different mineral compositions. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.

The application of heat and / or pressure causes a rock to be transformed into a metamorphic rock.
How can a metamorphic rock can be transformed onto a sedimentary rock?
it can be changed by weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
How can sedimentary rock be transformed into metamorphic rock through the application of heat and pressure?
Sedimentary rock can be transformed into metamorphic rock through the application of high heat and pressure. This process, known as metamorphism, causes the minerals in the sedimentary rock to recrystallize and reorganize, resulting in a new type of rock with different characteristics.
What is rock formrd by heat or pressure?
Rock formed by heat and pressure becomes transformed and altered, such rock is called Metamorphic Rock.
Can an igneous rock be transformed diretly into a metamorphic rock?
Yes they can with intense head and pressure. Please check the rock cycle.
