Change in a rock resulting from a meteorite?
impact metamorphism
What are the types of rock metamorphism?
Types of metamorphism are Contact Metamorphism Regional Metamorphism Cataclastic Metamorphism Hydrothermal Metamorphism Burial Metamorphism Shock Metamorphism (Impact Metamorphism)
What are the Three types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
When a rock changes due to surrounding pressure on all sides?
Burial metamorphism
Describe how contact metamorphism is different from regional metamorphism?
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.
Change in a rock resulting from a meteorite?
impact metamorphism
What are the types of rock metamorphism?
Types of metamorphism are Contact Metamorphism Regional Metamorphism Cataclastic Metamorphism Hydrothermal Metamorphism Burial Metamorphism Shock Metamorphism (Impact Metamorphism)
What are three types of metamorphism?
Contact, dynamic, burial, regional, and impact.
Match the type of metamorphism to its best definition.?
Contact metamorphism - the process in which a rock changes as a result of heat generated from magma Dynamic metamorphism- the process in which a rock changes due to pressure directed onto it impact metamorphism - the process in which a rock changes because of extreme heat and pressure caused by a meteorite collision with earth regional metamorphism- the process in which buried rocks in a large area are changed by heat pressure and fluids
What are the 4 types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
If metamorphism occurs due to heat generated by magma it is called metamorphism?
It is called contact metamorphism.
What are the Three types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
When a rock changes due to surrounding pressure on all sides?
Burial metamorphism
