What below the Earths's surface cools and hardens to form mineral crystals?
Molten magma cools and hardens to form mineral crystals.
In which form do many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface?
Many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface in rock form
Where do most metamorphic changes to rock occur?
Metamorphic rocks form deep in the earth where high temperature, great pressure, and chemical reactions cause one type of rock to change into another type of rock. Metamorphic rocks begin to form at 12-16 kilometers beneath the earth's surface. They can also form because of small pools of magma rising through the crust.
What is the smallest land form on earths surface?
An island
When large masses of magma solidify far below earths surface and large crystals form what do they exhibit?
The crystals may display a "Crescumulate texture".
What type of rock can form deep below earths surface or above?
igneous
What is true about plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
What is true about all plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
Which type of rock can form deep below surface or above earths surface?
Igneous rock can form deep below the surface as intrusive igneous rock, or on or near the surface as extrusive igneous rock. X Answer is: Igneous
Which type of rock can form deep below Earth's surface or above Earth's surface?
Igneous rock can form deep below the surface as intrusive igneous rock, or on or near the surface as extrusive igneous rock. X Answer is: Igneous
Igneous rocks form below earths surface?
Intrusive
Which type of rock can form below Earth's surface or below Earth's surface?
Igneous rock can form deep below the surface as intrusive igneous rock, or on or near the surface as extrusive igneous rock. X Answer is: Igneous
What is the texture of igneous rocks that form far below earths surface?
Course grained texture.
Do cirrus clouds form near or far from earths surface?
They form far above the earths surface.
What below the Earths's surface cools and hardens to form mineral crystals?
Molten magma cools and hardens to form mineral crystals.
How do silicate minerals form?
Most silicate minerals are formed when molten rock cools at either the earths surface, or deep underground.
What igneous rocks form below Earths surface?
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive igneous rocks. They crystallize when magma enters an underground chamber and cools very slowly.
