Answer:

The main factors that control metamorphic processes are:

  • The mineral composition of the parent rock
  • The temperature at which metamorphism takes place
  • The amount and type of pressure during metamorphism
  • The types of fluids (mostly water) that are present during metamorphism
  • The amount of time available for metamorphism
