Answer:

Igneous rocks are formed from cooled magma but metamorphic rocks are formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

Igneous rock , formed by the cooling of magma (molten rock) inside the Earth or on the surface. ... Metamorphic rocks, formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth. All three types of rock make up the Earth's lithosphere, the outermost layer.
