What is the texture used to identify the highest degree of regional metamorphism in a foliated rock?
Gneissic texture is used to identify the highest grade of metamorphic rock that still displays foliation. Granulite is the highest grade metamorphic rock, period, but does not display foliation due to the instability of sheet silicates.

Which process changes ingeous rocks into metamorphic?
Answering "What process changes igneous rocks into metamorphic types?"Igneous rocks convert into metamorphic due to extreme pressure and heat, which can come from magma/lava or the movement of tectonic plates. For example, the igneous rock basalt eventually turns into the metamorphic rock granulite.
What can metamorphic rocks change into?
Greenschist, blueschist, zeolite, granulite and eclogite high grade metamorphic rocks.
