What happens to rocks that are pushed under Earth's surface and become hotter and experience more pressure?

Sagot :

If a lot of temperature or pressure, the rock melts and turns into magma. This causes the formation of an igneous rock rather than a metamorphic rock.

Consider the way granite changes shape. Granite is an igneous rock formed when magma cools slowly underground. Massive forces push, tilt, fold, and break rocks. These processes have the ability to heat as well as squeeze any kind of rock sufficiently to change its structure. Such changes are referred to as metamorphoses, and the resulting rocks are referred to as metamorphic rocks. Marble is a metamorphic rock made of smothered and hot limestone.
