Answer 1

Metamorphic rock. I had this question last year. I hope I helped!

Answer 2

Answer:

Option (2) and (3)

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are the rocks formed due to the compaction and lithification of sediments. According to the rock cycle,  these sedimentary rocks can change into both metamorphic as well as igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks can turn into metamorphic rock if the rock is subjected to high-pressure and temperature conditions. For example, shale (sedimentary rock) changes into slate (metamorphic rock) due to the process of metamorphism.

The sedimentary rocks can also change into igneous rocks. When the sedimentary rock such as sandstone is subjected to extremely high pressure and temperature condition, then it starts to melt forming magma, and this magma when crystallizes (cools) it forms igneous rock. For example, granite.

Thus, the correct options are (2) and (3).
