What else can I help you with?
Would you be less likely to find fossils in metamorphic rock than in sedimentary rock?
Yes.
Why aren't you likely to find a fossil in metamorphic or igneous rocks?
the fossils would be turned into another rock if it was in a metamorphic rock or igneous rocks. it requires a blanket of sediment
How would a metamorphic rock look if it contained fossils?
gg
If you were looking for fossils in the rocks around your home and the rock type that was closest to your home was metamorphic do you think that you would find many fossils explain?
If the rock type around your home is primarily metamorphic, you are unlikely to find many fossils. Metamorphic rocks form under high pressure and temperature, which typically destroys any fossils that might have been present in the original sedimentary rock. Fossils are more commonly found in sedimentary rocks, where the conditions are conducive to preserving organic remains. Therefore, the chances of finding fossils in metamorphic rocks are minimal.
What type of rock do you fine fossils?
fossils are fine in metamorphic rock
Why don't geologists find fossils in a metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock is formed deep in the Earth's crust under tremendous heat and pressure. Fossiles are formed in sedimentary rock near the surface.
Why is it unlikely to find fossils in marble?
Marble is a metamorphic rock, and the process of metamorphosis destroys fossil shapes.
What can you find in a metamorphic rock?
in a metamorphic rock you find rock.
Are fossils found in sedimentary and metamorphic rocks?
no, fossils are found only in sedimentary rock.
Why are fossils in metamorphic rock either destroyed or distorted?
Fossils in metamorphic rock are often destroyed or distorted because the intense heat and pressure involved in the formation of metamorphic rock can alter the physical and chemical properties of the fossils, making them unrecognizable. This process can also cause the original structures of the fossils to be crushed or deformed, leading to their destruction or distortion.
What aren't you likely to find a fossil I metamorphic rock or igneous rock?
The fossils will be crushed under the pressures required to create metamorphic rocks and they will melt in the heat required to make igneous rocks.
What type of rock would you look for to find manetite?
You would look for a metamorphic rock.
