Answer:

They are generally crystalline with foliated or banded texture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Metamorphic rocks are so called because they always begin as another type of rock. The Metamorphism involves the transformation of existing rocks (igneous or sedimentary) by either excessive heat and pressure, or through the chemical activity of fluids.
