Brief Explanations

Sedimentary rock can be transformed into metamorphic rock under heat and pressure. Igneous rock forms from cooling magma or lava, not directly from sedimentary rock by heat - pressure alone. Metamorphic rocks are formed by the alteration of existing rocks (including sedimentary rocks) due to high - temperature and high - pressure conditions.
