It can be either baked and squished into a metamorphic rock, or, if the heat is high enough, it can be melted (and eventually recrystallized) into a new igneous rock.

How does igneous rock becomes metamorphic?

Igneous rocks, such as granite, when subjected to extreme pressure and temperature will change to metamorphic rock. Evidence that an igneous rock had undergone metamorphism would include light and dark mineral banding; possibly with indications of partial melting in highly metamorphosed samples.

How do metamorphic rocks change to igneous?

A metamorphic rock is a rock that has changed form through heat and pressure so a igneous rock (made from molten material from the earth that has solidified) would change to metamorphic rock through heat and pressure.

Can a sedimentary rock be a igneous rock when exposed to heat and pressure?

Usually it is metamorphic rocks that are formed by heat and pressure, but sedimentary rocks can too. Usually, the word 'sedimentary' means 'of sediments' which means that it is composed of lots of layers upon layers compacting down. In that case, pressure is essential, but heat isn't always needed.
