Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks that undergo changes in response to high pressure, high temperature, or chemically active fluids within the Earth's crust. These changes can occur without melting the rock. Igneous rocks, on the other hand, are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
