Agents of Metamorphism

Description

This video discusses the agents which bring about a change in rocks. Heat, pressure and chemically active fluids are the three agents that cause metamorphism. Depending on the amount and degree of each agent, rocks could display low-grade metamorphism or high-grade metamorphism. A sample question is included at the end.
