09
by the process of uplifting the sedimentary rock
D)
exposing the sedimentary rock to extreme temperature and pressure
Ok
Those sediments can be formed from the weathering and erosion of preexisting rocks. Sedimentary rocks also include chemical precipitates, the solid materials left behind after a liquid evaporates. Metamorphic rocks form when the minerals in an existing rock are changed by heat or pressure below the surface.
