Solution

The correct options are
A Subject to intense heat
D Molten rocks rise up and cool down
If a sedimentary rock is subjected to intense heat it will melt. Once it rises up and cools down, it will form an igneous rock. If an igneous rock comes under heat and pressure, it can change into a metamorphic rock directly.
