A metamorphic rock is a rock that has changed form through heat and pressure so a igneous rock (made from molten material from the earth that has solidified) would change to metamorphic rock through heat and pressure.
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
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.
Meta-igneous. Metamorphism of igneous rocks can form a wide range of metamorphic rocks, depending on the mineralogy of the igneous protolith and the P-T conditions of the metamorphism.
The lithosphere is primarily made up of two types of rocks: igneous and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma, while metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone a change in texture and composition due to heat and pressure.
Extreme heat and pressure, like that of coal turning to diamonds. Metamorphic rocks, in turn, are then broken down or turned into molten rock, so new sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic rocks can form.
The metamorphic rock melts into magma then cools into igneous rock
Yes, because sedimentary rocks can change into metamorphic and metamorphic can change into igneous rocks.
they change into metamorphic rocks
The metamorphic rock melts into magma then cools into igneous rock

Igneous rocks change to Metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure. Igneous rocks change to sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion until the igneous rock is sediments. The sediments then compact to form sedimentary rocks.
heat and pressure.
Igneous rocks can form metamorphic rocks by being subjected to high heat and pressure, causing recrystallization of minerals. Igneous rocks can also weather and erode to form sediment, which can then be deposited, compacted, and cemented to form sedimentary rocks.
Meta-igneous. Metamorphism of igneous rocks can form a wide range of metamorphic rocks, depending on the mineralogy of the igneous protolith and the P-T conditions of the metamorphism.
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
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.
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.
