Answer: B. Metamorphic rocks

Gniess is obtained from metamorphic rocks

Solution

Gniess is a rock made from the metamorphosis of granite. Since gneiss is a high-grade metamorphic rock, it has undergone more intense heat and pressure than schist. It is created through the transformation of sedimentary rock, such as granite.

  • Gniess is a metamorphic rock with high grade
  • Gniess rocks can be subjected to high temperatures and pressures.
  • Gniess shows the different foliation which represents different alternating layers of different materials.
