For a rock to become magma, it must undergo melting, which typically occurs due to increased temperature, decreased pressure, or the addition of fluids. This process often takes place in subduction zones, mid-ocean ridges, or hotspots. The composition of the rock also influences the melting point; certain minerals melt at lower temperatures than others. Once the rock melts completely, it transforms into magma, which can then rise through the Earth's crust.
What else can I help you with?
How does a metamorphic rock form into magma?
Metamorphic rock could become magma by collisions involving an oceanic plates. During subduction,any rock carried on the plate would return to the mantle and melt,forming magma
When rock in earth's mantle melt what does it become?
Melted rock in the Earth's mantle is called magma.
When rocks are pushed down into the mantle and melt it become?
When rocks are pushed down into the mantle and melt, they become magma. Magma is molten rock located beneath the Earth's surface.
What type of rock can become magma?
Cooled and solidified magma that rests below the surface becomes intrusive igneous rock. When magma is erupted onto the surface, then cools and solidifies, it becomes extrusive igneous rock. The major rock classification for cooled magma or lava would be IGNEOUS.
Rock can become magma again as a result of?
Rock can become magma again as a result of increasing temperature and pressure deep within the Earth's mantle. This can occur during processes like subduction, where tectonic plates collide and one plate is forced beneath the other, causing the rock to melt and form magma.
In what order does magma become a rock?
Magma forms from heated rock--it cools--minerals form--when totally solidified it is a rock.
How sediments can become igneous rock?
The sedimentary rock melts,which causes magma. When the magma cools it becomes an igneous rock.
What does magma become when it cools and hardens?
rock
Can the interaction between magma and surrounding rock cause changes in the rock?
Yes. The rock will get hot, of course, and some pieces of rock will become magma itself.
How does rock turns into magma?
Magma is essentially molten rock inside earth, possibly with some trapped gasses. To become rock the magma simply cools and solidifies, essentially freezing.
How does a metamorphic rock become magma?
Extreme heat.
Does sedimentary rock have to become metamorphic rock before it can become magma?
go to school nuff said
How could a metamorphic rock go to a igneous rock?
If a metamorphic rock were to reach the mantle and melt, it would become magma. If that magma were then to recrystallize it would be an igneous rock.
How can a metomorphic rock become an igneous rock?
Metamorphic rocks underground melt to become magma. When a volcano erupts, magma flows out of it. As the lava cools it hardens and becomes igneous rock.
How can metamorphic rock become magma?
If the metamorphic rock becomes hot enough it can melt.
How does magma turn into?
