What is the relationship between the visible and non visible aprt of the crust?
Well, as the name implies, visible areas of the crust are areas that you can see. These are areas that are either very new, resulting from recent vulcanism; or areas which have been exposed by weathering and erosion. Non-visible parts of the crust are just that - not visible to the eye. This is either because they have formed recently, but many miles underground; or they are just too old to have been efficiently exposed by weathering and erosion.
How many layers do metamorphic layers have?
a metamorphic rock is a rock that has been changed from one rock to another by heat and/or pressure.....they amount of layers would depend on what kind of rock.....all rocks have a different amount of layers sorry
What is the difference between a sill and a laccolith?
Laccoilith forms as an intrusive structure and an Eroding Laccolith has been exposed to the Earth's surface by erosion of the rock layers above it.
Which layers of earth have scientits been able to explore?
Only the crust. The temperature and pressure increases as you go further down into the earth.
Are there any layers in Mars' atmosphere?
Human exploration and study of Mars has not been detailed enough to result in the assignment of atmospheric layers. Since the atmospheric pressure a the surface of mars in only about 0.6% or Earth's mean sea-lever pressure, it is unlikely that a need to assign or define level will arise.
What is formed when pressure sqeezes moisture out of peat?
Dried peat. Only after subsequent layers of sediments have been deposited on top, year after year, century after century, eon after eon, will the pressure lithify the peat into coal.
Which layers have scientists been able to explore?
which layers of the earth have scientists been able to explore
How can a igneous rock change into a metaphoric rock?
I presume you mean Metamorphic. A metamorphic rock is one that has been changed by heat and pressure. An igneous rock that is exposed to heat can be changed.
How have scientist been able determine the composition of earths layers?
Scientists have been able to determine the composition of earth's layers using various ways. In most cases, samples have been taken and studied so as to determine the layers of the earth.
Are there any flying cars at present?
the scientific researches have proven possible but it is very expensive ,if it is present it should have been exposed to normal world there are flying cars,but it should with stand the low air pressure or it would be crushed in such low pressure regions
How do metamorphic rocks layer?

What is rotted wood subflooring?
Subflooring is the wood on which the visible floor is lain. A rotted wood subflooring is when the subfloor timbers have been exposed to water and have begun to rot, thus undermining the floor as a whole. The floor will have to be removed and the subfloor replaced.
