Which best describes the formation of metamorphic rock?

They are formed through the cooling and hardening of magma or

lava, both below Earth's surface or on Earth's surface as volcanic

rocks.

They are formed by deposited sediment, usually at the bottom of

lakes and oceans, that is compressed over time into solid layers of

rock

They are formed as extreme weather elements, like tornadoes and

floods, break down mountains and other rock landforms into smaller

pieces.

They can be formed from any of the three rock types, withstanding

high temperatures and pressures, and forming new minerals without

melting.
