Question
- heat and pressure deep beneath earths surface can change any rock into a(n) ____ rock.
- extrusive
- metamorphic

Brief Explanations
Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre - existing rocks (igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks) that undergo changes due to high heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust. Extrusive rocks form from lava cooling on the Earth's surface. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compaction of sediments.
