What is a type of metamorphic rock that has parallel layers?
Foliated rock has parallel layers.
What metamorphic rock type has flat layers?
Foliated rock
What type of rock forms from layers of sediment?
Sedimentary rock.
What type of rock forms in layers?
That would be sedimentary rock, and (honorable mention) occasionally metamorphic rock.
What type of rock have flat layers?
Sedimentary rocks have flat layers.
What type of rock has flat layers?
Rase
Which type of pluton is completely parallel to the rock layers into which it intrudes?
A sill is a type of pluton that is completely parallel to the rock layers into which it intrudes. Sills are formed when magma is injected between pre-existing rock layers and then solidifies. The resulting igneous rock body is typically flat-lying and can be found sandwiched between the surrounding rock layers.
What type of rock is composed of layers of small particles or sediments?
sedimentary rock
What type of rock is usually identified with layers?
Lime
What type of stress occurs when layers of rock are pulled apart?
Tensional stress occurs when layers of rock are pulled apart. This type of stress results in the stretching and thinning of rock layers, leading to the formation of features like rift valleys or normal faults.
What is rock formed from material that settled in layers?
This type of rock would be classified as sedimentary.
What rock has uneven layers of minerals?
Shale is a type of rock that typically has uneven layers of minerals. These layers are often created through the deposition of clay and silt particles over time, resulting in a distinct banded appearance in the rock.
