What happens after physical and chemical changes have occurred?
The substance will remain in its current state unless acted upon in such a way as to cause a physical or chemical change.
Why are minerals considered inorganic?
Because minerals are not reliant upon organic processes for their creation.
A regional metamorphic belt is divided into zones based upon?
mineral groups found in the rocks.
How does the melting and boiling point of a substance change?
it changes depending upon the temperature
what are igneous rock classified based upon?
Igneous rocks can be classified by their method of formation and by their mineralogy.
What five processes act upon rocks to change them?
diastrophism,faulthing,thrust,displacement,subsidence,folding,warping
How the environment in which the business operates impacts upon its success?
The environment affects a business because changes can impact business strategy and processes. For instance, heavy government regulations can place a burden on the business.

texture
What bis physicalweathing and it causes?
Physical weathering represents the act of rocks, land, etc, breaking apart or breaking down. The physical weathering is caused by the changes of the temperatures upon the things experiencing the physical weathering.
Why is it that rocks near the surface of the Earth tend to be brittle while those below tend to flow rather than break?
When a rock is subjected to increasing stress it changes its shape, size or volume. This is referred to as strain. In general, rocks near the surface of the earth behave in a brittle fashion. When they are acted upon by differential stress, they tend to fracture. Rocks that are below the surface are not subjected to the different "strains" then the rocks that are at the surface.
Does the composition of a sedimentary rock depend upon the composition of the rocks and the living things its sediments came from?
It is true that the composition of a sedimentary rock depends upon the composition of the rocks and living things its sediments come from. Sedimentary rocks form through lithification.
What are metamorphic rocks in?
Metamorphic rocks have really all and any mineral based upon different rocks. However common ones are quartz, mica, and calcium carbonate.
Can you consider the program as a set of processes?
No, a program runs as a process, or set of processes, but is written as a class or set of classes... depending upon what language you use
Identify two ways that rocks deform?
rocks usually deform due to wind and erosion depending upon the intensity to which they are effected.
