Question

can a sedimentary rock be transformed into an igneous rock and then into a metamorphic rock explain

Answer 1

Igneous to sedimentary: Igneous rock becomes exposed at the surface. Weathering of the rock occurs and the rock is broken down into smaller and smaller particles. The particles are transported and deposited by rain, wind, gravity, or ice to a place of deposition, where they eventually lithify through compaction and cementation into a sedimentary rock.

Igneous to metamorphic: An igneous rock body is exposed to heat and pressures from tectonic plate collisions. The directional stress imposed on the rock causes the constituent minerals to align themselves perpendicularly to the direction of the stress and some recrystallization may occur, creating a banded or foliated metamorphic rock.
