What else can I help you with?
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure it would likely change to?
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure, it would likely change to gneiss, a metamorphic rock. Gneiss forms through the recrystallization of minerals in granite under high temperature and pressure conditions.
What kind of rock would you probably find in a cave?
You would likely find sedimentary rock in caves, as it is common for caves to form in limestone, dolomite, or sandstone due to the processes of erosion and underground water flow. Igneous and metamorphic rocks are less common in caves, but can also be present in certain geological settings.
What does the metamorphic rock quartzite turn into because of pressure and heat?
Quartzite is already a metamorphic rock formed from sandstone under high pressure and heat. It does not transform into another mineral due to pressure and heat.
Where would you most likely find metamorphic rock?
Transform boundry
Why would you expect a metamorphic rock to form at a temperature lower then the melting point of rock?
Metamorphic rocks can form at temperatures lower than the melting point of rock because they do not actually melt during the process. Instead, they recrystallize under high pressure and temperature conditions, causing changes in mineral composition and texture. This process allows metamorphic rocks to form without reaching the point of melting.
If you found a rock with flat mineral grains which rock would it be?
It is likely a type of metamorphic rock, such as schist or gneiss, which form under high temperature and pressure conditions leading to the alignment of mineral grains into flat layers.
When metamorphic rock changes to magma the magma rises and cools to become?
A metamorphic rock is formed by the elements, minor heat, and compression. When the metamorphic rock is melted by magma, this would indicate that the metamorphic rock is under the surface of the earth. If it rises and cools again you will have an extrusive igneous rock. In a lot of cases, this is metamorphic rock on the surface under the influence of lava. This would change the composition and it would not longer be metamorphic, but rather igneous.
What type of metamorphic rock would be produced by sand?
Sand would likely metamorphose into quartzite, a metamorphic rock made predominantly of quartz. Sand is primarily composed of quartz grains, and under heat and pressure, these grains can recrystallize and compact to form quartzite.
Would you be less likely to find fossils in metamorphic rock than in sedimentary rock?
Yes.
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure it would likely change to?
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure, it would likely change to gneiss, a metamorphic rock. Gneiss forms through the recrystallization of minerals in granite under high temperature and pressure conditions.
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
Would you find fossils in metamorphic rock?
You can but it very very rare. you are more likely to find them in sedimentary rocks.
What is rock that is changed by heat pressure or chemical change?
Metamorphic rocks have been changed by heat or pressure. This can be a change in size, shape, or arrangement of minerals.
How do you reset your Facebook profile to 'Public'?
you would have to go under settings and change the things that show who can veiw your relationship status and stuff. go under privacy settings.
What happens to Rock Salt when heat and pressure is applied?
Rock salt would not form a metamorphic rock, due to its dissolution under metamorphic stresses. The solution would be forced elsewhere, but small amounts could recrystallize as a small component of another metamorphic rock.
What is the most likely reason a user on a network would not be able to change system settings?
The network manager has removed system settings from standard users
Gneiss and slate are what type of rocks?
Nonfoliated metamorphic rock would be:Quartzite - composed of the mineral quartz; metamorphosed sandstoneMarble - composed of the mineral calcite; metamorphosed limestone
