WHAT ARE two types of sedimentary rocks and describe what they are made from?

Two types of sedimentary rocks are sandstone and limestone. Sandstone is made from grains of sand that have been compacted and cemented together, while limestone is primarily made from the accumulation of the shells and skeletons of marine organisms.


Rocks that have large grains you can easily see are described as fine grained true or false?

False. Rocks with large grains that are easily seen are described as coarse-grained, not fine-grained. Fine-grained rocks have smaller grains that are not easily visible to the naked eye.


How do geologists classify metamorphic rock?

Geologists classify metamorphic rocks by the arrangements of the grains that make up the rocks.


Can two igneous rocks be made of the same minerals but have different names?

Yes. The grain texture also matters. For example, basalt and gabbro have the same mineral composition, but basalt, which forms on the surface, has microscopic grains while gabbro, which forms underground, has larger mineral grains.


What are two types of Non-Porous rocks?

Two types of non-porous rocks are quartzite and marble. Quartzite is a hard, non-foliated rock composed of quartz grains, while marble is a metamorphic rock primarily made up of calcite or dolomite crystals. Both rocks have low porosity, meaning they do not absorb water easily.


What are two examples of sedimentary rocks?

Limestone or Sandstone are two examples of sedimentary rocks. Two examples of sedimentary rocks are slate (fine silt) and chalk (shell remains of sea creatures).

Metamorphic rocks are classified into two groups?

Metamorphic rocks are classified into two main groups: foliated and non-foliated. Foliated rocks have a layered or banded appearance due to the alignment of mineral grains during metamorphism, while non-foliated rocks lack this layered structure and typically consist of interlocking crystals.

What is the grain shape of a rock such as conglomerate?

Conglomerate is one of two similar rocks not to be confused. The large 'grains' are rounded as a result of their formation, and indeed the formation of the rock. Conglomerate is not to be confused with Breccia, a similar rock formed in very different circumstances. Breccia fragments tend to be smaller, but most of all are always angular.
