Some types of rock that are parent/ photolith of metamorphic could be sedimentary- Metamorphic metamorphic- metamorphic or igneous - metamorphic. Sedimentary is when limestone could become marble.
Protolith or parent rock is the rock type that a metamorphic rock was before it was subjected to metamorphic conditions. Protoliths can be any rock from the three main rock categories: Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic
Igneous, sedimentary, or even other metamorphic rocks are parent/protolith rocks to metamorphic rocks. Knowing these parent rock help us classify the rocks. We can classify them further by their texture. Some examples of this process are: heat and pressure being applied to shale, then turning it into slate. Slate is then turned into phyllite through the same process. This process changes the rock to schist.
Metamorphic rocks can change into a parent/protolith rock. Here is a example. Gneiss is a type of foliated rock which used to be granite. Sorry if I get this wrong.
Rocks which typically form as a result of regional metamorphism: slate, phyllite, schist, gneiss, and migmatite. These rocks can all be changed due to heat and/or pressure! http://mtweb.mtsu.edu/
Protolith or parent rock is the rock type that a metamorphic rock was before it was subjected to metamorphic conditions. Metamorphic grade refers to the temperature and pressure under which a rock was metamorphosed, considered low grade or high grade.

Any rock can become a metamorphic rock. To become a metamorphic rock the rock must undergo heat and/or pressure, but not so much that the rock melts. Should the rock melt it would become an igneous rock.
Adding to my comment that Any type of possible rock in the world can become metamorphic rock. I mean that an igneous rock can become a metamorphic rock a gneiss rock can sedimentary rock can be come metamorphic.
Protolith is a rock that has not gone through metamorphic changes yet. all types can turn into metamorphic rocks Like limestone is protolith and it goes through metamorphic changes then turns into marble. also like genies turns into granite,slat turns into shale.

Protolith rocks are the parent rock to a rock that has undergone changes in the tock cycle. In other words, what a rock was before it changed. In the case of metamorphic rock, there are many possible protolith rocks. Granite, an igneous rock can undergo heat and pressure and turn into gneiss, a metamorphic rock. Slate, and already metamorphic rock can undergo more metamorphic changes and turn into shale. Similarly, slate (metamorphic) can turn into schist. Finally, limestone (sedimentary) can turn into marble.
Metamorphic rocks are rocks changed from one form to another by intense heat, intense pressure,
ReplyDeleteand/or the action of hot fluids.

It could change with heat and presser.
ReplyDeleteMetamorphic rocks are changed by intease heat, action of hot fluilds and thats how they are changed.
ReplyDeleteMetamorphic rocks can be made from sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks.
ReplyDeleteIgneous,Sedimentary,and Metamorphic rock can all turn into Metamorphic rock.Some other rocks are Slate,Gneiss,Schist,and Phyllite.

Metamorphic is changed by heat and very hot liquid that will change it.

ReplyDeleteMetamorphic,igneous and sedimentary rocks can be turned in to metamorphic.

ReplyDeleteWell I think limestone is a parent rock of marble because heat gets added to the limestone and it makes marble. Same with shale and slate.
ReplyDeleteMetamorphic rocks can be changed by heat
ReplyDeleteSedimentary, Igneous, and metamorphic rock with heat it can make a different type of metamorphic rock.
ReplyDeleteSedimentary,metamorphic and Igneous rock can all Turn into Metamorphic rock
ReplyDeleteAll rocks such as Igneous, Sedimentary can be made into metamorphic with gravity and heat.
ReplyDeleteMetamorphic rocks are changed by heat and pressure.
ReplyDeleteThey are caled prodolit ,foldation, nonfoldation, regional metamorphism. some of the rocks are called slate chalk or shale these are jusw.

Metamorphic rock can be changed by heat and pressure. Although all rocks can turn into another rock..
ReplyDeleteWell, its called protolith. That is the Mummy rock. All rocks can turn into other rocks by heat and pressure.

ReplyDeletethey are rocks that has not gone through the metamophic chancges

The type's of rock that are parent/protolith, rock's to metamorphic are, contract and regilion. Sedimentary can change into metamorphic.
ReplyDeleteThe parent or protolitch is a rock that hasn't been exposed to extreme heat and pressure. Limestone if the parent/protalith of marble.
ReplyDeleteInagas rock can go threw a metamorfic stage
