Lisa wrote the following steps in the formation of metamorphic rocks. step 1: rocks pushed up onto earth's surface due to movement of tectonic plates step 2: rocks experience extreme heat and pressure step 3: mineral composition of rocks changes step 4: original rocks transform into a new rock which step contains an error? step 1 step 2 step 3 step 4

The correct answer is Step 1: Rocks pushed up onto Earth's surface due to movement of tectonic plates.

The step 1 is the incorrect. It is because metamorphic rocks are formed on the surface of the Earth by the effect of heat and pressure on existing rocks. This can greatly affect the hardness, texture or layer patterns of the rocks. These rocks are changed by heat produced by nearby molten igneous rock. When the volcanoes erupt or release lava, the lava seeps inside the cracks of the rock and due to heat and pressure, forms a metamorphic rock.
