What type of metamorphic rock is similar to granite?
A type of metamorphic rock similar to granite is gneiss. Gneiss is a foliated metamorphic rock that has a similar composition to granite but displays a banded texture due to the alignment of mineral grains during metamorphism.
What is a metamorphic rock that forms from directed pressure?
Granite
Is it true or false that the texture of a sedimentary rock that does not have minerals arranged in bands is described as nonfoliated?
False. The terms folidated and nonfoliated apply to metamorphic rocks.
How could granite become a metamorphic rock?
Metamorphisism (heat and pressure)
When granite is changed by heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
gneiss
How is gneiss similar to granite?
Granite is an igneous rock and gneiss is a metamorphic rock.
True or false granite is a sedimentary rock?

What is a metamorphic rock that was once granite?
Gneiss
True or false granite is a fine grained igneous rock?
False. Granite is an intrusive igneous rock and so commonly cools slowly so has time to develop moderate to large crystals.

Granite
How do you change granite from sedimentary rocks to metamorphic rocks?
