Question

What is it called when heat and pressure change one type of rock into another?
•
crystallization

Answer 1

The correct answer is metamorphism. When heat and pressure act on existing rocks, they can undergo a transformation and form a different type of rock. This process is known as metamorphism. To find the answer, you need to understand the concept of rock formation and the processes that can change one type of rock into another.
