No @awolflover1

OpenStudy (xenon):

\(\bf\underline{\color{black}{Metamorphic~Rocks}}\) are formed as the result of extreme pressure and/or temperature occurring upon a rock, which changes the chemical makeup of the minerals within, usually as the result of being under extreme pressure and/or being near molten magma. \(\bf\underline{\color{black}{Transform~Boundaries}}\) occur when two tectonic plates slide past each other. When this happens, the rock on each side of the the plates are under immense pressure as they grind past each other. The friction between each of the plates also creates heat which can easily metamorphasize the rocks.
