How does (prograde) occur?
In general, the changes in mineral assemblage and mineral composition that occur during burial and heating are referred to as prograde metamorphism.
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
Where does regional metamorphism most commonly occur?
at convergent plate boundries
When molten igneous material intrudes into rock what metamorphism can occur.?
contact
What plate tectonic settings does regional metamorphism occur?
Destructive plate boundaries.
What process can occur during metamorphism?
everything
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.
When rocks stack up on each other what type of metamorphism can occur?
Regional metamorphism can occur.
How does (prograde) occur?
In general, the changes in mineral assemblage and mineral composition that occur during burial and heating are referred to as prograde metamorphism.
What characteristic does large-scale folding of rocks during the process of mountain building have?
Large scale folding rocks are a characteristic of regional metamorphism. Regional metamorphism will occur during the process of building mountains.
Which type of metamorphism is most likely to occur along the fault line?
Dynamic Metamorphism >.<
How does contact (prograde) occur?
In general, the changes in mineral assemblage and mineral composition that occur during burial and heating are referred to as prograde metamorphism.
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
Does regional metamorphism occur under volcanoes?
Yes they do occur under volcanoes
Can metamorphism occur without deformation?
Can deformation occur without metamorphism? (; sorry you should put the definitions in the description box when you're dealing with big words haha.
What 2 things must increase for metamorphism to occur?
For metamorphism of rock to occur temperature and pressure must increase. Rocks created in this manner are called metamorphic rocks.
What must be present for metamorphism to occur?
The changes to the rock must occur in solid form.
