Two types of metamorphism occur in earth's crust. One is when small volumes of rock come in contact with magma. And the other is when large amounts of the earth's crust are effected by heat and pressure
Metamorphism can occur through contact metamorphism, where rocks are altered by heat from nearby magma; regional metamorphism, where rocks are subjected to high pressure and temperature over a large area; burial metamorphism, where rocks are subjected to increased pressure from being buried deep underground; and dynamic metamorphism, where rocks are deformed under high pressure but low temperature conditions along faults or shear zones.
For metamorphism to occur, there must be an increase in temperature, pressure, and/or the presence of chemically active fluids. These factors cause existing rocks to undergo physical and chemical changes, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks. Typically, increased temperature and pressure occur deep within the Earth’s crust, while fluids can facilitate the movement of ions and promote reactions between minerals.

No allele can give an advantage
The changes to the rock must occur in solid form.
For metamorphism of rock to occur temperature and pressure must increase. Rocks created in this manner are called metamorphic rocks.
the parent rock must be in solid form
Dynamic Metamorphism >.<
Metamorphism occurs when rocks are exposed to high temperatures, pressure, or chemical fluids beneath the Earth's surface. These conditions cause the minerals within the rock to recrystallize, resulting in new mineral assemblages and textures. The original rock remains solid during this process.
Yes, metamorphism can occur without deformation. Contact metamorphism, which results from high temperatures and pressures near igneous intrusions, can happen without significant deformation of the rock. Additionally, burial metamorphism can occur due to increased pressure from overlying rocks without accompanying deformation.

When rocks stack on each other, contact metamorphism can occur. This type of metamorphism happens when the high temperature and pressure from nearby molten rock alter the composition of the rocks in contact.
