What else can I help you with?
Do heat and pressure inside the earth form metamorphic rock?
yes, yes it does
How do deposits of minerals form deep inside the earths crust?
by heat and pressure
Is a dimond a nonrenewable resource?
Diamond is formed when carbon is placed under high pressure and heat. The pressure and heat necessary for its formation is not found on the surface of the earth, but rather deep inside it. This fact, plus the sheer amount of time necessary for it to form, makes it a nonrenewable resource.
Which rock form heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rocks form from heat and pressure.
What are the 2 things to form a metamorphic rock?
It is formed by the action of heat or pressure.
What causes magma to form deep inside earth?
Magma is molten meaning liquid-like so it is able to move inside earth. The tectonic plates separate the earth and magma. This explains when the plates move earthquakes and volcanoes occur. Lava is not magma by the way! lava is hardened magma and magma is molten!
What term is used to describe energy that comes from inside the earth?
Geothermal energy is the term used to describe energy that comes from inside the earth, usually in the form of heat stored in the Earth's crust.
What are the conditions needed for a metamorphic rock to form?
Metamorphic rocks form from existing rocks that are subjected to high temperature and pressure conditions, typically found deep within the Earth's crust. This process causes the minerals in the rock to recrystallize and reorganize, resulting in a new rock with different characteristics. Metamorphic rocks can also form through the addition of fluids, which can facilitate chemical reactions and mineral growth.
Why do metamorphic rocks often form deep under the surface of the earth?
Metamorphic rocks form deep under the Earth's surface because the high pressures and temperatures required for the transformation of existing rocks into metamorphic rocks are typically found at greater depths. These conditions are usually created by tectonic forces or by the burial of rocks under layers of sediment.
What state of matter is not present at the temperatures and pressures naturally found on Earth?
Plasmas require immense heat and pressure to form.
Where can you get heat and pressure to turn Igneous Rock into Metamorphic?
There are many ways to change and form it but the most common way the rock get the pressure and heat it needs to change and form is when the rock is beneath the Earth's surface (near the mantle where it's hot) and receive the pressure from all the rock layers above it.
Do diamonds form deep within the Earth?
Generally, diamonds are formed in the Earth and not from Supernovas.
