What happens as a result of molten rocks building up pressure under earths crust?
An erupting volcano occurs when the pressure of the molten lava beneath becomes too great.
What type of areas are most likely to form metamorphic rocks such as gneiss and schist?
Metamorphic rocks are most likely found at a site that is deep under ground. Metamorphic rocks are formed by other materials under great amounts of pressure. This pressure is caused by plate collisions in the lithosphere.
What do rocks do under heat and pressure?
rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
What happens to a rocks that are pushed under earths surface and become hotter and experience more pressure?
They become exposed to deformation, in a process called metamorphism.
Describe what happens to rock during pressure release?
During pressure release, rock may undergo expansion or dilation. This occurs because the pressure that was previously applied on the rock is suddenly released, allowing the rock to expand and relax. This expansion can lead to the formation of cracks or fractures in the rock.
Rocks at great depths are under?
Great depth means great heat and pressure.
What happens as a result of molten rocks building up pressure under earths crust?
An erupting volcano occurs when the pressure of the molten lava beneath becomes too great.
What happens before rocks give way in an earthquake?
pressure builds under the plates
Why metamorphic rocks appear to be flattened or crushed?
Becausethey are under a great pressure under the Earth's surface.
What is pressure release OMG HELP PLZZZ?
Pressure release:Rock deep within earth is under great pressure from surrounding rocks
What is the name of the rock that is put under great pressure within the earth?
metamorphic rocks
How does sedimentry change into metamorphic?
Sedimentary rocks change under great pressure and temperature condition to form metamorphic rocks
Does exposure to air help metamorphic rocks form?
No metamorphic rocks are formed deep in the crust under great temperature and pressure. No air is down there.

What happens to rocks that are pushed under earth's surface and become hotter and experience more pressure?
They become exposed to deformation in a process called metamorphism, and become metamorphic rocks.

What happens if a submarine dives to deep?
The pressure gets too great and the submarine implodes. The deeper you go under water the more pressure there is.
