What conspicuous difference is there between precambrian sedimentary rocks and those formed in later eras?
No fossils.
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
What is the difference between eco-friendlly colors and chemical colors?
Organic sedimentary rocks are formed from the remains of plant and animal life. Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation of minerals in a solution.
What is the difference between igneous and sedimentary rocks?
Igneous rock is formed from the solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rock is formed from the lithification of sediments, generally.
How would you know the difference between igneous and sedimentary and metamorphic rock?
Sedimentary rocks tend to have layers. Igneous rocks tend to have crystals. If you don't see layers or crystals, the rock might be metamorphic.
Rocks formed from weathered debris from preexisisting rocks are called?
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
Is there a difference between metamorphic rocks and inclined sedimentary rocks?
Yes, the main difference is between a sedimentary rock and a metamorphic rock.A sedimentary rock is formed from various sizes of rock or rock particles (eroded from older rocks) that have been deposited by wind or water over time. The weight and pressure of subsequent deposits results in the squeezing out of water from the lowest depositional layers, and these layers may become cemented together as a solid rock.Metamorphic rocks are formed subjecting an existing rock (sedimentary or volcanic), to heat and or pressure after it was formed. This 'cooking' changes the rock, giving it new fabrics, textures and minerals.Both sedimentary and metamorphic rocks can be inclined with respect to their fabrics (beading in the case of sedimentary rocks), this is not a distinguishing feature.
What is the difference between clastic and chemical rocks?
Clastic: These rocks are composed predominantly of broken pieces of older weathered and eroded rocks Non-clastic/ Organic: A sedimentary rock composed of the remains of plants and animals.
What is the difference between a dike and a vein deposit?
Vein :mass of rock which occupy fissures in other rocks, Dike is sedimentary layer cuts across preexisting rocks.
What does cycle?
cycle means it cycles between sedimentary,metamorphic and igneous rocks. cycle means it cycles between sedimentary,metamorphic and igneous rocks. -Mrs.Zalenski
Are sedimentary rocks classified tofoliated sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are classified by foliation or lack there of, not sedimentary rocks. They are classified into Clastic Sedimentary, and Chemical Sedimentary.
What is the difference between facies in sedimentary rocks and facies in metamorphic rocks?
Most regional metamorphic rocks are formed in conditions within this range of geothermal gradients, passing through the greenschist facies to the amphibolites
