As magma heats in the mantle, it becomes molten (liquid) and begins to rise towards the Earth's surface. This results in the magma traveling to the crust where it cools and becomes igneous rock.

I apologize for the incorrect response.

The correct answer is heat and pressure.
The correct answer is melting followed by cooling.
Metamorphic rock is formed when existing rock undergoes high heat and pressure, causing it to change its mineral composition and structure. However, if this metamorphic rock goes through the process of melting, it will break down into molten magma or lava. After the melting process, when the molten rock cools and solidifies, it forms igneous rock. This process is known as crystallization. Therefore, melting followed by cooling is the process that changes metamorphic rock to igneous rock.
