Metamorphic rocks are formed from heat and pressure underground.
Explanation:
Metamorphic rocks, like slate and marble, are formed from heat and pressure. This happens under the Earth's surface and the minerals in the rocks are chemically changed. It can also occur close to volcanoes, where underground magma can cause the heating.
Metamorphic rocks do not melt. Instead, they can have fossils or crystals arranged in layers.
