Answer 1

d. metamorphic

Step-by-step explanation:

Metamorphic rocks started out as some other type of rock, but have been substantially changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors.

Answer 2

The correct answer of the given question above would be option d. METAMORPHIC. When some rocks are pushed deeper into the earth, these rocks experience greater heat and pressure, the type of rock that they will turn into if they do not melt will be metamorphic rocks. Hope this answers your question.
