1 answer

Metamorphic rock can form from:

  • igneous rock
  • sedimentary rock

Metamorphic rock is created through the process of metamorphism, which involves the alteration of existing rock types (both igneous and sedimentary) under heat and pressure. Metamorphic rock cannot form directly from magma, as that would result in igneous rock.
