What are two ways that can poduce metamorphic rocks?
Two ways in which metamorphic rocks are 1) contact metamorphism (thermal) where magma comes in direct contact with surrounding igneous rock and changes it due to high temperatures and usually low pressure. 2) Regional metamorphism (dynamothermal) ,high pressures and low temperature eg mountain ranges. or 3) Cataclastic metamorphism, heat as a result of friction due to two plate meeting or passing each other.
What is 2 types of metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the process of extreme heat, pressure and other chemicals. Two types of metamorphism are dynamic which makes the pressure and extreme heat and thermal which is caused by the heat of magma from a volcanic eruption.
What are two geologic events that occur as a result of the movement of plates?
Earthquake and Tsunanmi
What are two processes to cause metamorphism?
what are the physical conditions that causes metamorphism?
How many types of metamorphism occur in earth's crust?
Two types of metamorphism occur in earth's crust. One is when small volumes of rock come in contact with magma. And the other is when large amounts of the earth's crust are effected by heat and pressure
What is the difference between contact and metamorphism?
Contact metamorphism is metamorphism that happens when preexisting rock comes in contact with a molten rock or magma and it melts locally.Regional metamorphism is metamorphism happens when two plates collide the plate that subducts can melt by the heated area.
What two geological processes are involved in changing sedimentary rock to a metamorphic rock?
The two processes resulting from sedimentary into metamorphic rock are known as contact metamorphism and regional metamorphism. Regional metamorphism most notably involves two tectonic plates colliding, while contact metamorphism occurs due to the intrusion of magma.

What kind of metamorphism occurs when intrusive magma forms a sill between two sedimentary rock strata?
contact metamorphism
Why are formulas different when determining the probability of two or more events?
It depends on how independent the events are and on how much their result sets intersect.
Would contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism be a product of 2 plates colliding?
Two plates colliding will generate both regional and contact metamorphism. The point of contact would have contact metamorphism while surrounding parts would be regionally metamophrsed.
Give examples of two events that are independent?
the result of throwing a dice and the result of taking a card from a deck at the same time
What two properties of rock change during metamorphism?
The properties of temperature and pressure both change when rocks undergo metamorphism. Re-crystallization and chemical reactions also occur during metamorphism.
What are two processes to cause metamorphism?
what are the physical conditions that causes metamorphism?
Metamorphism involves what two conditions act on the existing rock to change it?
Metamorphism involves temperature and high pressure and chemical changes. The high pressure, chemical changes and temperature are the metamorphism that act on a rock that makes it change.
