In earth

How is muscovite formed?
Muscovite is formed by layers. Muscovite is so delicate when you hold it, it can break. One layer, then another, it keeps building but never grows humongous because people find it and use it.
Technology used to find out the different layers of the earth?
The technology used to find out the different layers of the earth is referred to as sonar technology. This is the method that geologists use to find details about the layers of the earth.
What are soil horizons composed of?
Soil horizons are layers of soil that differ in composition. The uppermost layer is typically organic matter (this is where living organisms are found). As you proceed down into the soil, you will find older and older layers. Each layer, or horizon, was formed under different environmental circumstances. Environmental conditions and availability of minerals are what makes the layers differ.
