What type of rock forms when heat and pressure change the structure texture or composition of sedimentary rock?
A "metamorphic" rock.
What type of rock can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rock, such as schist or gneiss, can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure. This process can cause the mineral composition and texture of the rock to change, resulting in a new type of rock with different features than the original volcanic rock.
What is a type of rock formed by pressure on large masses of rock?
Metamorphic rocks are buried deep inside Earth. There is enough heat and pressure to change the rocks, but not enough to melt it into magma. Metamorphic rocks can form adjacent to layers of magma, because of the generated heat, however
What rocks change into metamorphic rocks?
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
Is metamorphic rock the oldest type of rock?
slate
When heat and pressure cause a rock to change what type of rock is formed?
Metamorphic Rocks.
What is the process called when heat and pressure transform one type of rock into another?
The process is called metamorphism, where heat and pressure change one type of rock into another.
What type of rock forms when heat and pressure change the structure texture or composition of sedimentary rock?
A "metamorphic" rock.
Heat and pressure creates what rock?
Heat and pressure create metamorphic rock. This type of rock forms when existing rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure, causing their mineral composition and texture to change. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
What are the way metamorphic rock Chang?
heat time pressure these can all cause a metamorphic rock to change to another type of rock such as igneous
What type of rock can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rock, such as schist or gneiss, can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure. This process can cause the mineral composition and texture of the rock to change, resulting in a new type of rock with different features than the original volcanic rock.
Which type of rock is the result of increased heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rock
How does one type of rock change into a different type of rock?
It change by Heat,Pressuer,Werthering
What rock type can be formed by heat and pressure?
sedimentary
What type of rock can change into an igneous rock?
Igneous rocks can change into metamorphic rocks from great heat and pressure as all other rocks can, melt into magma, the molten rock, and erode into sediment, which are rock fragments.
What is different between metamorphism and metasomatism?
Metasomatism is specifically the chemical change of rock by the introduction of hot fluids, creating a different type of rock.Broadly, metamorphism is the change of rock from one type to another by heat and/or pressure.
What existing rock can change into another type of rock when it is subjected to great?
When rocks are subjected to great heat and pressure, they can undergo a process called metamorphism, where they change into a different type of rock. For example, shale can metamorphose into slate, which is a type of metamorphic rock. This process typically occurs deep within the Earth's crust.
