Granite changes to gneiss so option may be A again it can be obtained from conglomerate which is sedimentary rock so option may be C ie both from igneous and metamorphic.

Gneiss is formed by high-temperature and high-pressure metamorphic processes acting on formations composed of igneous or sedimentary rocks. Orthogneiss is gneiss derived from igneous rock (such as granite). Paragneiss is gneiss derived from sedimentary rock (such as sandstone).

Gneiss is obtained from metamorphic rock and it is formed by metamorphism of sedimentary and igneous rock.

Gneiss, a metamorphic rock that has a distinct banding, which is apparent in hand specimens or on a microscopic scale. Gneiss is usually distinguished from schist by its foliation and schistosity; gneiss displays a well-developed foliation and a poorly developed schistosity and cleavage.
