In sedimentary rock it is called striated or stratified. In metamorphic rock it is foliated or gneissic.
Gneiss, pronounced 'nice', is a coarse grained banded metamorphic rock.
Yes, sandstone can be banded. Banded sandstone is formed when varying mineral compositions or grain sizes accumulate in layers during the sedimentation process. These layers create distinct bands or stripes in the sandstone rock.
Those are two types of metamorphic rocks. Banded metamorphic rocks are when rocks layer into layers and they look like strips or Bands. Non banded is the opposite of banded
Metamorphic rock can be banded and foliated. Banded metamorphic rock has visible layers or bands of different mineral compositions, while foliated metamorphic rock has a layered or sheet-like appearance due to the alignment of minerals. These patterns are a result of the intense heat and pressure the rock undergoes during metamorphism.
Please.

Gneiss is a banded metamorphic rock.
Quartzite, a non banded metamorphic rock.
Metamorphic rocks with a layered or banded look are referred to as foliated.
Granite is a common non-banded rock that is formed from the slow crystallization of molten magma deep within the Earth's crust. It is a coarse-grained rock composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica minerals.
