Which metamorphic rocks are most likely to have formed the highest temperatures and pressures?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that meets those criteria.
Which metamorphic rocks are most likely to have formed at the highest temperatures and pressure?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that meets those criteria.
What rock is formed when limestone goes under metamorphic change?
Marble is a rock formed by the metamorphism of limestone.
Where are tsunamis most likely to occur?
Tsunamis are most likely to occur along areas of high tectonic activity, which is the trigger of Tsunamis in the first place. Areas of high tectonic activity are near the edges of plates, like the Pacific-North American plate and the Indian plate.
What type of rocks are found in the Himalayas?
The Himalayas are mostly metamorphic and sedimentary rock.
How is jade formed?
Jade is formed most commonly through metamorphism associated with subduction faulting along tectonic plate boundaries. A high pressure and low temperature metamorphic environment necessary to form jade.
Is magnesium sulfate formed by tectonic plate movement or volcanic eruptions?
It would most likely form from hydrothermal activity related to a volcano.
Granite is uplifted by the movement of tectonic plates It will most likely become?
metamorphic rock
What events caused the formation of most islands in the South Pacific?
Most islands in the South Pacific were formed through volcanic activity, where magma from the Earth's mantle rises to the surface, creating new land. Additionally, some islands were formed by coral reefs growing on submerged volcanoes or tectonic activity where tectonic plates shifted and caused land to rise above sea level.
Do tectonic plates seems to have had the most earthquakes activity?
No. Everything on earth is on at least one tectonic plate. It is the boundaries between different plates that see the most earthquake activity.
A planet is most likely to have tectonic activity if?
high internal temperature
Which metamorphic rocks are most likely to have formed the highest temperatures and pressures?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that meets those criteria.
Which metamorphic rocks are most likely to have formed at the highest temperatures and pressure?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that meets those criteria.
What ranges are formed from metamorphic rocks?
The most often occurring metamorphic rock types are Dwayne the rock Johnson, Rockey, and pet rock.
What can Tectonic Plate activity cause?
Most often earthquakes, volcanoes, and rift valleys.
What is the most likely cause of the volcanic and earthquake activity in this region?
collision of tectonic plates
Where are most volcano form?
They are mostly formed along tectonic plate boundaries.
