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.
When rocks stack up on each other what metamorphism can occurr?
Burial metamorphism.
What rock was once shale?
Shale is a sedimentary rock that can transform into other types of rock through the process of metamorphism. Under heat and pressure, shale can turn into slate, while further metamorphism can result in the formation of phyllite, schist, and gneiss.
When rocks grinds and squeeze past each other what type metamorphism can occur?
dynamic
What process causes water to move from Earth's surface to the atmosphere during the water cycle?
The water on Earth's surface is heated up, and the particles start moving fast enough to push each other away. This causes the water to become a gas, which rises. This process is called evaporation.

The splitting of atoms causes other atoms to split in this process?
It's called thermonuclear reaction.
What happen when a acid and a base react with each other?
They react and cancel each other out. The process is called neutralization and it causes them to cancel out.

Burial metamorphism.
How is metamorphism different from regional metamorphism?
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.

Describe how contact metamorphism is different from regional metamorphism?

What are the types of rock metamorphism?
Types of metamorphism are Contact Metamorphism Regional Metamorphism Cataclastic Metamorphism Hydrothermal Metamorphism Burial Metamorphism Shock Metamorphism (Impact Metamorphism)
When rocks stack up on each other what type of metamorphism can occur?
Regional metamorphism can occur.
