-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
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.
