Answer:

Contact Metamorphism - Heat

The heat is the main cause, cooling magma affects the rock adjacent to an intrusive body.

Dynamic Metamorphism - directed pressure

It takes place due to grinding two large blocks of rock in a fault zone which causes a directed pressure that leads to heat and the formation of these metamorphisms.

Regional - surrounding pressure

A heat and lithostatic pressure come from depth within the earth.

Impact - Meteorite

By collision of meteorite to earth very high amount of kinetic energy is converted instantaneously to heat and differential stress.
