Rocks are held together by the intergrowth of crystals in igneous and metamorphic rock, or by the cementation of sedimentary particles by a variety of possible minerals like calcite and quartz, in the lithification process leading to sedimentary rock formation.
Rocks being pushed together is called compression. This can result in the rocks being folded, faulted, or metamorphosed depending on the amount of force applied.
Compressive stresses. These stresses can lead to the folding and faulting of rocks as they are squeezed together.
Stresses the squeeze rocks or anything else are compressive.
The squeezing together of rocks by stress is called compression. In scientific terms Compression is when a force called stress pushes rock/squeezes rock together until it folds or breaks.
The squeezing together of rocks by stress is called compression. This compressional stress can cause rocks to deform and change shape due to the forces acting upon them.
That process is called cementation.
Breccia is the type of sedimentary rock that is made of other fragmented rocks. The mineral that holds the fragments together can be made from the same rock material as the larger fragments, or from a different type of rock entirely.
I would say rocks.
Wood glue holds boards together.
The cell membrane holds a cell together.
well all say the gravity holds everything together but i don't know what holds everything together
chemical bond holds together the atoms in a substance
The cell membrane, which is like a plastic baggy, holds the nucleus together.
Rocks can be naturally stuck together by a couple of different things, including volcanos. Stone that consists of "stuck together" rocks is called conglomerate.
The connective tissue holds muscle fibers together. The connective tissue also holds other organs together, as well as cushioning them.
Minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and calcite act as a binding agent to hold the grains of rocks together. These minerals form crystalline structures that interlock with one another, creating a cohesive rock matrix. Cementing agents like silica, calcite, or iron oxide can also fill in the spaces between mineral grains and act as a glue to bind the rock particles together.
