5 0

Answer:

Metamorphic rocks are almost always harder than sedimentary rocks. They are generally as hard and sometimes harder than igneous rocks. They form the roots of many mountain chains and are exposed to the surface after the softer outer layers of rocks are eroded away.  

Because their mineral grains grew together tightly during metamorphism, they're generally strong rocks.

Len [333]

Answer:

Due to environmental conditions.

Explanation:

With the passage of time, environmental conditions change which causes the evolution of of four legged land animals from fish like creature. This change occurs due to change in environment.
