Metamorphic Rock
The rock that forms when existing rock is changed by heat, pressure, or chemicals
Real World Example
Imagine trying to reshape a stale loaf of bread into something new and delicious by applying heat, pressure, or adding new ingredients. Just like transforming that bread into a fresh and tasty bread pudding, existing rocks can be transformed into metamorphic rocks when subjected to heat, pressure, or chemical changes. In this analogy, the stale loaf is akin to the original rock, the heat and pressure represent the environmental forces, and the new ingredients are like the chemicals that contribute to the transformation, ultimately creating something entirely different yet still rooted in the original material.
