The difference between these three types of rock is in their formation process:

• Igneous rocks are formed by thesolidification of melted rocksm(agma) inside the Earth.

,

• Metamorphic rocks are formed from the other types of rock that suffer changes due to different processes,for examples caused by high preasures or heat.
