when rocks undergo intense heat and pressure
Metamorphic rocks form from pre-existing rocks that are changed by heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids (without melting). Cooling lava makes extrusive igneous rocks, compacted particles form sedimentary rocks, and cooling magma makes intrusive igneous rocks.
