It is more likely that igneous and metamorphic, or igneous and sedimentary rocks would have something in common than sedimentary and metamorphic. The reason is because the processes involved in making metamorphic rocks is completely different than the processes needed to make sedimentary rocks. Only high temperature, high pressure minerals such as olivine, pyroxene, amphibole can withstand these kinds of conditions. Take quartz and feldspar, two of the most abundant minerals found in sedimentary rocks, these minerals would not be found in abundance in metamorphic rocks because they are not high temperature, high pressure rocks. But the most simple answer is that all the major groups of rocks are made of minerals. Metamorphic has high pressure and Igneous does to and both made from a particle called magma.

What are the three common rocks?
igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic!
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
What type of rocks can contain fossils on them?
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form sedimentary rocks.
What are some rocks that are not volcanic?
Sedimentary rocks: Metamorphic rocks
More often than metamorphic or igneous rocks sedimentary rocks have what?
Sedimentary rocks have numerous fossils
What are the three common rocks?
igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic!
What features of metamorphic rocks are unlikely to be found in sedimentary rocks?
Foliation, a layered or banded texture, is a common feature of metamorphic rocks but not typically found in sedimentary rocks. Metamorphic rocks can also have mineral reorganization and recrystallization that are not commonly seen in sedimentary rocks. Additionally, metamorphic rocks may exhibit distinct metamorphic minerals like garnet, staurolite, or kyanite, which are unlikely to be found in sedimentary rocks.
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Can Metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks.?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
What do sedimentary rocks have more often than metamorphic or igneous rocks?
Sedimentary rocks often have visible layers or bedding, which are less common in metamorphic or igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks also tend to contain fossils, as they are formed from the accumulation of sediments. Additionally, sedimentary rocks are more likely to be composed of minerals that are common in the Earth's crust.

What are 3 major rock types?
Igneous Rocks,Sedimentary Rocks,Metamorphic Rocks.
Can metamorphic rocks melt to form sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary is formed by compression. Metamorphic is created by heat and pressure. Sedimentary can be melted to create metamorphic.
What are the types of the rock?
The types of rocks are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.
Can metamorphic rocks form form igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks through the process of heat and pressure, but they are more commonly associated with forming from existing metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks can indirectly contribute to the formation of metamorphic rocks by heating up and altering surrounding rocks, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.
