A fossil is the preserved traces of a living organism from the past (plant, animal, etc.). It is generally preserved because of fast burial in an oxygen-poor environment with low heat and pressure. A foliated rock is a metamorphic rock that has gneiss banding as a result of high pressure and temeprature
The two textures of metamorphic rocks are the Foliate and Non-foliate textures.
Slate
This is the fossil of an extinct animal.
You need to clean the same fossil rock a couple of times and then it immediately donates the fossil rock
no it is not
decaying
Low foliate intake in pregnancy is a particular concern since it is highly associated with an increased risk of the foetus developing Spina Bifida.
Foliate has to do with leaves. (Hence the foliage of autumn when the leaves turn different colours.) But there are other and quirky definitions of the word, having to do with the coating of a mirror with a thin layer, or to decorate with a thin layer, or to split into thin, leaf-like layers. check the link for more info: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/foliate
Japanese beetles eat the foliate and flowers of plants.
Metamorphic rocks are generally divided into two textural divisions: foliate and non-foliate. Foliate metamorphic rocks, such as schist and slate, exhibit a layered or banded appearance due to the alignment of mineral grains under directed pressure, typically formed in high-pressure conditions. Non-foliate metamorphic rocks, like marble and quartzite, lack this layered texture and are usually formed under conditions of uniform pressure and high temperature, often from the metamorphism of limestone and sandstone, respectively.
We would conclude that the bird and the dinosaur lived around the same time.
Slate is a foliate metamorphic rock with the smallest crystals. It forms from the low-grade metamorphism of shale or mudstone, resulting in fine-grained crystals too small to be seen with the naked eye.
