What else can I help you with?
What is a type of metamorphic rock that has parallel layers?
Foliated rock has parallel layers.
What is the name of a rock that has twisted layers?
metamorphic rock
How many layers do metamorphic layers have?
a metamorphic rock is a rock that has been changed from one rock to another by heat and/or pressure.....they amount of layers would depend on what kind of rock.....all rocks have a different amount of layers sorry
Does metamorphic rock have layers?
Not exactly. Some metamorphic rocks have foliation, which can appear similar to the layers of sedimentary rock. Foliation develops from mineral grains being oriented by pressure, rather than the deposition of layers.
A metamorphic rock with visible layers or bands is said to be what?

What type of rock forms in layers?
That would be sedimentary rock, and (honorable mention) occasionally metamorphic rock.
What metamorphic rock breaks into layers?
Slate is a metamorphic rock that breaks into flat, thin layers. These layers are a result of the alignment of minerals during the rock's formation under heat and pressure, making slate ideal for use in roofing and flooring.
When mineral grains in a metamorphic rock do not form layers the rock has what texture?
no texture
