Answer: OB. Metamorphic

Metamorphic rocks form due to high pressure and/or high temperature acting on existing rocks, causing them to undergo a process called metamorphism. During metamorphism, the mineral composition and texture of the original rocks change, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, schist, and gneiss.
