What is peridodite?
A hard, coarse plutonic rock that contains large amounts of olivine.
What type of rocks are created from large amounts of heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rocks are created from large amounts of heat and pressure acting on existing rocks. This process causes the minerals in the rock to recrystallize without melting, resulting in a new texture and sometimes a new mineral composition. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
Which area in new york state is located on rock formations that countain large amounts of salt deposits?

A landslide is the rapid movement of large amounts of material downslope due to gravity. It can include rock, soil, and debris, often becoming more destructive with increased speed and volume of material.
Why don't sedimentary rocks form from particles deposited by fire?
The volume of ash produced by a fire is not large enough to produce significant amounts of rock. We do find evidence of fires in rock layers, though.
What is a large rock?

How can gravity move large amounts of rock and soil?
Gravity can move large amounts of rock and soil through processes like erosion, mass wasting, and landslides. When the force of gravity pulls on loose materials on a slope, it can cause them to slide or flow downhill, carrying rocks and soil with them. Over time, these movements can reshape landscapes and create features like valleys, canyons, and deltas.
What are 3 examples of sedimentry rock?
Sandstone: Formed from grains of sand compressed and cemented together. Limestone: Composed mainly of calcium carbonate from marine organisms like shells and coral. Shale: Made up of fine particles like clay and silt that have compacted over time.
A rock body is exposed to large amounts of heat and pressure but does not melt and changes into a new type of rock. What is the new type of rock?
The rock would transform into a metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks are formed due to high heat and pressure without melting completely. Examples include marble, slate, and quartzite.
