The correct label the student should add to an arrow from the picture of obsidian (igneous rock) to the picture of slate (metamorphic rock) is **heat and pressure**.

This is because slate is formed from the metamorphism of shale, which involves heat and pressure, and obsidian can be subjected to similar conditions over time to transform into metamorphic rock.
