When a layer or several layers of rock are missing from a rock layer sequence this is called a what?
Unconformity. An unconformity represents a gap in the geologic record where erosion or non-deposition has led to a break in the sequence of rock layers.
Are Aquifers rock layers?
Aquifers are permeable layers of rock that have non permeable layers of rock under them so water remains in the permeable layers
What does it mean for rock layers that are forming?
Rock layers that are forming are stratifying.
How do we know if rock layers are undisturbed?
The rock layers will be easily visible.
What do you call the layers in sedimentary rock?

What is a slab of volcanic rock formed when magma squeezes between layers of rock?
A sill is a slab of volcanic rock formed when magma squeezes between layers of rock. It is typically horizontal and parallel to the surrounding rock layers. Sills are distinguishable from dikes, which cut across the rock layers.
What is a type of metamorphic rock that has parallel layers?
Foliated rock has parallel layers.
How do you use rock layers in a sentence?
Those rock layers are quite colorful.
What are five ways that the rock layers can be distributed?
Rock layers can be distributed in several ways, including horizontal layers formed by sediment deposition, tilted layers caused by tectonic forces, folded layers resulting from compressional stress, faulted layers where rock masses are displaced along fractures, and volcanic layers created by lava flows or ash deposits. Each distribution reflects the geological history and processes that have affected the area over time. These variations can provide insights into the Earth's tectonic activity and the environment during formation.
