Can metamorphic rocks from from other metamorphic rocks?
Yes. Most likely it would become a metamorphic rock of higher grade. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock. With increased heat and pressure it will become schist, a high grade metamorphic rock.
What is a metamorphic rock formed from a shale?
Slate. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock derived from shale or mudstone.
What is the lowest grade of foliated metamorphic rock?
Slate.
What group of rock does slate belong?
Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock.
How Metamorphic rock form?
Metamorphic rock is formed by heat and pressure making changes to igneous and sedimentary rock.
Does metamorphic rock change?
Metamorphic rock can undergo a series of changes called degrees of metamorphism, from low-grade to high-grade.
What refers to how much the metamorphic rock differs from parent rock?
Metamorphic grade refers to the degree of metamorphic change a rock has undergone compared to its parent rock. It encompasses changes in mineralogy, texture, and structure that occur during the metamorphic process.
What changes other types of rock to metamorphic?
Heating and pressurization changes igneous and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rock.
What are some changes that occur when a sedimentary rock changes into a metamorphic rock?
To change a sedimentary rock to a metamorphic rock, you change it by time,heat, and pressure.
How do the properties of a rock change when the rock changes to metamorphic?
When rock changes into metamorphic rock, its appearance, texture, crystal structure, and mineral content change.

Which metamorphic rock changes to an igneous rock?
Any metamorphic rock can melt and recrystallize and become an igneous rock.

Can you describe the 4 rocks formed by metamorphic grade which are Slate Phyllite Schist and Gneiss?
Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock characterized by fine-grained foliated structure. Phyllite is intermediate-grade metamorphic rock with a greater degree of crystallization and foliation than slate. Schist is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with visible mineral grains and strong foliation. Gneiss is a high-grade metamorphic rock with distinct banding of light and dark minerals and high crystallization.
What is the name for a rock that changes form?
