What type of rock is most likely to form in an earthquake zone?
A metamorphic rock is most likely to form in an earthquake zone.
What type of rock will the metamorphic rock most likely transform into?
Another metamorphic rock or likely weather to form sediments that results to sedimentary rock.
If the sedimentary rock limestone is subjected to metamorphism what metamorphic rock will likely form?
Limestone can metamorphose into marble, a regional metamorphic rock, or into skarn, a contact metamorphic rock.
What type of rock is most likely to form a transform boundary?
Metamorphic rock
What type of rock is most likely to form at a transform boundary?
Metamorphic rock
Where or under what settings would a metamorphic rock most likely form?
Metamorphic rocks are formed beneath the Earth's surface It changes into Igneous rocks through extremely high temperatures and intense pressure.
What type of metamorphic rock is formed by sand?
Sand forms sedimentary rocks such as sandstone. Sandstone containing mostly quartz can form the metamorphic rock quartzite.
What processes found at hot spots will form metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks at hot spots will form mostly by contact and hydrothermal metamorphism as a result of exposure to heat from magma and interaction with hot water respectively.
Can metamorphic rocks from from other metamorphic rocks?
Yes. Most likely it would become a metamorphic rock of higher grade. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock. With increased heat and pressure it will become schist, a high grade metamorphic rock.
What kind of rock do fossils form?
Sedimentary rock, its rarely found in metamorphic and never found in igneous rock because it would make the fossil of the animal worped and changed. It wouldn't be with the original form on metamorphic and igneous would destroy the whole fossil.
What is metamorphic rocks most likely form?
From the actions of heat and presure on pre-existing rocks.
Which is the most likely place a metamorphic rock might form?
eight kilometers below Earth's surface
