What rocks are formed from high temperature and pressures?
Rocks formed from high temperature and pressure include metamorphic rocks such as marble, schist, and gneiss. These rocks are created deep within the Earth's crust through the transformation of existing rock types under intense heat and pressure conditions.
What helps create both metamorphic rock and sedimentary rocks?
Both metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocks can be created through processes like heat and pressure (metamorphism), as well as erosion, transport, deposition, and lithification (sedimentation). Metamorphic rocks form when pre-existing rocks undergo intense heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust, while sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compression of sediments over time.
A rock body is exposed to large amounts of heat and pressure but does not melt and changes into a new type of rock. What is the new type of rock?
The rock would transform into a metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks are formed due to high heat and pressure without melting completely. Examples include marble, slate, and quartzite.
Heat and pressure creates what rock?
Heat and pressure create metamorphic rock. This type of rock forms when existing rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure, causing their mineral composition and texture to change. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
Natural magnets are rocks with large amounts of?
iron
Are large amounts of carbon tie up in rocks?
yes.. they are!
What rocks are created by pressure and heat within the earth?
Metamorphic Rocks
Can metamorphic rocks be created by melting?
Nope, because they are created when the Earth pressurizes and heats it (but not to the point of melting). Igneous rocks are created when rocks melt.
Why scientist think that large crashing waves split apart large rocks by compressing air in the cracks?
becaues large, crashing waves have a force large enough to put enough pressure on the rocks to crack them

How can I effectively clean large landscape rocks?
To effectively clean large landscape rocks, use a pressure washer or a garden hose with a high-pressure nozzle to remove dirt and debris. Scrub the rocks with a mixture of water and mild detergent, then rinse thoroughly. Allow the rocks to dry completely before placing them back in the landscape.
What is the formation of large rocks from particles of sediment that occurs pressure is appiled?
The formation of large rocks from particles of sediment under pressure is called lithification. This process involves the compaction of sedimentary particles and the cementation of these particles by minerals dissolved in water, which binds them together to form solid rock. Over time, with continued pressure and cementation, sedimentary rock formations such as sandstone, shale, and conglomerate can be created.
How do plants commonly break large rocks ino smaller pieces?
roots penetrate into small cracks in rocks and they grow thy exert pressure on rocks breaking them
What must happen for an existing rock to become a metamorphic rock?
It must undergo heat and pressure. Different amounts for different rocks.
When rocks over a large area are changed by heat or pressure the process is called what?
regional metamorphism
What is The formation of large rocks from particles of sediment that occurs as pressure is applied?
What is the process in which rocks ate broken down into smaller pieces by ice, water
