Question

which type of rock is most likely to form because of high heat and pressure?
magma
sediment
metamorphic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Metamorphic rocks form from pre - existing rocks due to high heat and pressure, changing their mineralogy and texture. Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface and not a rock type formed by high heat and pressure in the same sense. Sediments are small particles that accumulate and form sedimentary rocks through compaction and cementation, not primarily by high heat and pressure like metamorphic rocks.

Answer:

C. metamorphic
