Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Solid state recrystallization is a changeable procedure that happens under circumstances of extreme temperature and pressure where grains, iotas or particles of a stone or mineral are packed nearer together, resulting in another crystal structure. The basic constitution remains unchanged.

Whenever transformed, those little crystals are gradually constrained together under high weight and start to frame bigger, increasingly unmistakable crystals of calcite found in the marble (metamorphic rock)

Whenever transformed, these minerals grains will transform to garnet and muscovite mica.
