Question
Metamorphic rocks are changed rocks. Which of the following rock types could be the “parent” of a metamorphic rock?
- Sedimentary
- Igneous
- Metamorphic
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)
The process of metamorphism is one that changes or alters either the mineralogy or the texture, but typically both, of some pre-existing rock.
Metamorphic rocks are consequently rocks that have undergone a change or “metamorphosis” from a previous state as a sedimentary, igneous or even another metamorphic rock.
