Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.

Metamorphic rocks are rocks which have changed from one form to another due to intense heat or pressure. Any rock (sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous) can be changed into a metamorphic rock.
Metamorphic rock cycle
The rock cycle is how one type of rock can be changed into another type of rock.
Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
Those are metamorphic rocks, changed from one type to another by extreme pressure.
It can be any type of rock. If heat and pressure deep in the Earth changed it, it is a metamorphic rock. If sediments of sand or other rocks compacted/cemented together, it's a sedimentary rock. If magma from a volcano cools, (on the outside of a volcano) it's an igneous rock.

rocks can change from one type of rock to another, or not change at all
Schist is a metamorphic rock. This type of rock has been changed because of great heat or pressure, or both
The original rock that exists before it undergoes metamorphism is called a parent rock or protolith. This parent rock can be any type of rock, such as sedimentary, igneous, or another metamorphic rock, that is subjected to high temperature and pressure to form a metamorphic rock.
Metamorphic rock is a type of rock that has been changed from its original form through heat, pressure, or chemical processes. This transformation often occurs deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
