Most metamorphic processes takes place few kilometers below the Earth's surface. Thus, "metamorphic rocks" are formed under conditions found few kilometers under the Earth's surface.
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the compaction of sediments. Two main groups of sedimentary rocks are clastic sedimentary rocks and chemical sedimentary rocks.
Metamorphism refers to the changes in the mineral composition of the rocks. The three agents of metamorphism are heat, pressure and water.
The conversion of one form of rock to another is referred as rock cycle. In a rock cycle, an igneous rock formed from the deposition of molten magma can get converted into sedimentary rock when igneous rock breaks down into pieces and sediments. Finally, the any sedimentary rock or igneous rock can undergo metamorphosis to form metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rock can again form igneous rock by melting of magma followed by crystallization.

How do the differences in the polyatomic ions po3 3- and po4 3- help you determine whether each ends in -ite or -ate?
Tcecarenko [31]

There is a rule in naming polyatomic anions containing oxygen. Those names ending in <em>–ate</em> are given to the most common oxyanion of an element. While those names ending in <em>–ite</em> are for those that contains fewer O atom for the same charge. Since PPO_{3} ^{3-} has fewer O atoms, its name ends in <em>–ite</em>. Thus, PPO_{3} ^{3-}  is phosphite while PPO_{4} ^{3-}  is phosphate.
