Answer: When limestone, a sedimentary rock, gets buried deep in the earth for millions of years, the heat and pressure can change it into a metamorphic rock called marble. Marble is strong and can be polished to a beautiful luster.

Explanation:

Yes, sedimentary rock can become metamorphic rock only if there is high pressure and heat for a long time. When a sedimentary rock is buried in the Earth's mantle, the heat of 1000°F can transform it to metamorphic rock, only if it buried for a long time. Hope it helps!
