Metamorphic rock having a uniform consistency?
ok, so it is a consistency uniform for a metamorphic rock so ANSWER IT I NEED HELP ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL
What type of rock is a metamorphic?
the word "metamorphic"is derived from greek which wean changing form.Therefore metamorphic rocks are the rocks which are formed when one type of rock changes into another type after having been subjected under intense heat or pressure.the process of changing one rock type to another rock is calle rock cycle
What is the difference between schist and phyllite?
Texture and metamorphic grade. Schist has visible crystals, while phyllite has crystals too small to be seen with the eye or barely seen. This is a result of schist having higher grade metamorphism.
How are rocks classified in the rock cycle?
By origin and method of formation. Igneous--molten material, sedimentary--from sediments, metamorphic--from existing rock that has undergone a physical change. The Three Rock Types and the Rock Cycle The three rock types are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. At one time, early in Earth's history, all rocks were igneous, having solidified from molten rock. The rock cycle is the natural process in which rocks transform from one rock type into another rock type over time, a type of natural recycling. Igneous rocks, which are formed from magma cooling underground, or lava above ground are formed from previous igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rocks which have become melted, usually as a result of plate collision and subduction. When these igneous rocks are exposed to weathering and erosion, they break down into smaller particles that are transported by wind and water to a place of deposition, where they can form into sedimentary rock strata, through a process of lithification, where excess water is squeezed out by overburden pressures and the particles are cemented together by various minerals precipitating out of solution. Igneous and metamorphic rocks can both be turned into sedimentary rocks in this way. Igneous and sedimentary rocks can also be changed by heat and/or pressure into metamorphic rocks, by transforming their existing mineral structures into new minerals or realigning the existing minerals. There are different degrees of metamorphism, so even an existing metamorphic rock can become a different metamorphic rock. If these metamorphic rocks are melted, then solidify, they become igneous rocks, and the cycle starts all over again. The rock cycle is largely driven by lithospheric plate movements which cause subduction and uplift, also by climatic conditions and the associated erosion and weathering components.
How can you compare and contrast the 3 different types of rocks?
Igneous Rocks for from either magma or cooling lava.Sedimentary rocks form from layers of sediments.Metamorphic rocks can be any rock that has changed under great pressure and/or heat.
Should Halloween's be banded?
Halloween should not be banded because it is fun for the kids and, it is fun for the parents because they see there kids having fun.
What kind of metamorphic rocks have banding?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock of variable composition with distinct banded layers. The layers or banding are called foliations, the result of the alignment of mineral grains in a direction perpendicular to the direction of pressure being exerted on the rock.
What part of speech is the word striped?
Because the word striped is a descriptive word meaning to be marked with or having stripes, it is an adjective.
What kind of metamorphic rock having a uniform consistency?
none

What is the sex of a house gecko with a striped tail?
Having a striped tail would just be a physical feature of the animal and will not determine or effect the sex of the animal. Housed geckos have been known to come in 3 main varietys: Striped, Bold and Patternless.

What is flocculent growth?
Having a fluffy or woolly appearance.
Where is peridotite found in the Earth?
It is found in the upper mantle due to it's having to become a metamorphic rock.
