Answer:

Igneous rock , formed by the cooling of magma inside the Earth or on the surface.

Metamorphic rocks, formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth.

Explanation:

Igneous and Metamorphic are formed in different ways,

<em>Metamorphic rocks: arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form". The original rock may be a sedimentary rock, an igneous rock or another older metamorphic rock.</em>

<em>Igneous rocks: began as magma (molten rock) which cooled and crystallized into minerals. This magma can be derived from partial melts of existing rocks in either a planet's mantle or crust.</em>

KIM [24]
The answer would be D.

As for The other options, it cannot be A because there is no way we could know if they are exactly similar. B states they are dramatically different when there is obviously some similarity. C states that they are from the same time period, which is impossible as there is no way a layer of sedimentary rock can be the same age as current day mud. There are likely many layers above the studied area that can denote the age.
