Answer:

The processes which can change a sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock is:

d. subduction and high pressure

Step-by-step explanation:

Metamorphic rocks are formed when the sedimentary rocks get heated and are exposed to the pressure. The pressure of the burial and the high temperature caused the formation of new minerals. Sedimentary rocks are found at the bottom layers of the water bodies likes lakes and oceans.
