Metamorphic rock
What else can I help you with?
What is rock alterd by heat?
Metamorphic rock is altered by heat and pressure.
What is rock formrd by heat or pressure?
Rock formed by heat and pressure becomes transformed and altered, such rock is called Metamorphic Rock.
During what process does the make-up of a rock become altered?
A rock can be altered compositionally by chemical weathering or by metamorphosis through heat and pressure.
What type of rock can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure?
Metamorphic rock, such as schist or gneiss, can be formed when volcanic rock is altered by heat and pressure. This process can cause the mineral composition and texture of the rock to change, resulting in a new type of rock with different features than the original volcanic rock.
What rock changed by heat pressure and fluids?
Sedimentary rocks when altered by heat and pressure because metamorphic rock. But please read the rock cycle you will see the different stages because Igneous can also become Metamorphic with intense pressure and heat.
Does a rock need to be weathered before it can become a metamorphic rock?
No. Metamorphic rock are simply rocks which have been altered by heat and pressure.
What takes place when changes in pressure temperature or chemical makeup alters a rock?
It becomes a metamorphic rock, altered by heat, pressure, or hot fluids.
What is a rock altered by pressure and heat?
A rock altered by pressure and heat is called a metamorphic rock. This type of rock forms when existing rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures, causing them to recrystallize and change their mineral composition without melting. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
Which type of rock forms previously existing rocks that have been altered by heat and pressure?
metamorphic
What takes place when changes in pressure temperature or chemical-make up alter a rock?
It becomes a metamorphic rock, altered by heat, pressure, or hot fluids.
When changes in pressure temperature or chemical make up alter a rock what takes place?
It becomes a metamorphic rock, altered by heat, pressure, or hot fluids.
What takes place when changes in pressure temperature. or chemical make-up alter rock?
It becomes a metamorphic rock, altered by heat, pressure, or hot fluids.
