How can any rock be transformed into metamorphic rock?
Heat and pressure transform rock to metamorphic rock.
What happens to a metamorphic rock when its weathered?
When a metamorphic rock is weathered, it undergoes physical and chemical breakdown due to exposure to the elements. This can lead to the rock breaking apart into smaller pieces or being chemically altered, potentially forming new minerals. Over time, the weathering process can transform the metamorphic rock into sediment that may eventually become part of a sedimentary rock.
What clastic sedimentary rock is made from finest sediment?
Metamorphic rock
How can a sedimentary rock be re formed?
A sedimentary rock can be re-formed through the process of lithification, where loose sediment is compacted and cemented together to create a solid rock. This can occur through pressure from overlaying sediment layers and the precipitation of minerals in the pore spaces between sediment grains. Over time, these processes transform loose sediment into a cohesive sedimentary rock.
What can transform igneous rock into sedimentary rock?
Igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is weathered into sediment and then lithified.
What processes can transform metamorphic rock into sediment?
weathering and erosion
How can any rock be transformed into metamorphic rock?
Heat and pressure transform rock to metamorphic rock.
What processes transform metamorphic rock into sedimentary rocks?
Heat and pressure change the rock into a metamorphic rock
How can a metamorphic rock turn into sedimentary rock and then back to metamorphic?
metamorphic rock melts turns into lava,lava cools turns into igneous rock,igneous rock is weathered and eroded into sediment,sediment turns into sedimentary rocksedimentary rock gets heated and squeezed forms metamorphic rockcycle continues.......

What clastic sedimentary rock is made from finest sediment?
Metamorphic rock
How can sedimentary rock becomes a metamorphic rock?
When the metamorphic rock breaks down into sediment. Thus, making the new rock sedimentary because when sediment forms together over time it makes it sedimentary rock
How does metamorphic turns to sedemantary?
Sedimentary rock is rock that has been worn away and turned into sediment such as sand. That sediment is then compacted together and turned into rock. So metamorphic rock wears away and compacts into sedimentary rock
What rock forms when sediment is squezed into layers by the weight of the rock above it?
Metamorphic rock.
What type of rock will the metamorphic rock most likely transform into next?
A sedimentary rock.
What type of rock is most likely to form a transform boundary?
Metamorphic rock
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.
