From what I've learned metamorphic rock does not melt. It is formed by massive pressure and temperature yet retains a solid state. Melted rocks are igneous rocks. I'm in a geology class and our professor goes nuts if we fail to make the distinction. Am I missing something?
Hello the two class of rocks i.e igneous and metamorphic rocks now is there any way other than seein the banding to distinguish the metamorphic rocks from igneous rock{volcanic and plutonic} from naked eye, we know that igneous can be distinguished by fine and corse grained but how to identify when we get two rocks one of which is metamorphic and the other is igneous without using any instrument? Thank You
A bit confusing that you show two igneous parent rocks.... Placing the parent and the metamorphic rock next to each other with arrows would be nice. What about non-foliated rocks like marble? What about looking at a low to high grade sequence like shale to slate to phyllite to a clay schist to gneiss?

Funny that she's talking about identifying metamorphic rocks and the first 2 rocks shown are igneous (granite and diorite).

Umm.. It's not technically melted. If you want to learn about geology, visit my channel. LOL.
