Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Metamorphism is the process of transforming pre-existing rocks into new rocks by subjecting them to high temperatures, pressure, and/or chemical changes. Sedimentary rocks are often subjected to these conditions and may undergo changes to become metamorphic rocks. Precipitated elements refer to minerals that have formed from a solution and are not a type of rock. Magma and lava are not metamorphic rocks themselves but rather the source material for igneous rocks.
