How is metamorphism responsible for the Earth's surface outlook?
That's not entirely true. In locations where we have extensive metamorphic rocks, such as teh Canadian and Baltic shields, we have a very distinctive topography of comparatively flat land with many lakes.I dont see it as responsible for the way the surface of the earth looks

Where the exposure is more restricted in area the harder character of the metamorphic rocks is likely to see them higher than the surrounding countryside. The Scottish Highlands would be an example of that.
