How are metamorphic rocks formed?

• Through the solidification and crystallization of molten rock material
• Through heat and pressure of existing rocks
• Through the deposition and compaction of sediments
• Through the erosion and transportation of rock fragments

How are igneous rocks formed?

• Through the metamorphism of existing rocks
• Through the deposition and compaction of sediments
• Through the erosion and transportation of rock fragments
• Through the solidification and crystallization of molten rock material
