What else can I help you with?
Describe can metomorphic rock are classified what are the characteristics of rocks in each of these classifications?
they are classified by how they are classified
What is outstanding characteristics?
There are a number of outstanding characteristics that one can have. Having a great attitude, responsible, optimistic, non judgmental, and fair are all great characteristics to possess.
What is the difference between a rock and a rock formation?
A rock is just a piece of a larger formation of rock; the formation exhibits characteristics of origin or composition that set it apart from other formations. A rock is the product of the rock formation process, just as a cake is the result of the process of cake making (combining ingredients, mixing and baking the cake).
What characteristics make areas along hillsides and layers of sedimentary rock well suited for fossil formation?
no exposure
What are four characteristics that can be used to classify a rock?
Density, crystallography, mineralogy, method of formation, chemistry, texture, hardness, and others.
What are the characteristics and formation processes of metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks are subjected to high heat, pressure, or chemical changes. This causes the minerals in the rock to reorganize and form new crystals, resulting in a new rock with different characteristics. Metamorphic rocks can have foliated or non-foliated textures, depending on the amount of pressure they were subjected to during formation.
List the characteristics of a geologic formation?
list all of the characteristics of a geologic formation?
How do earths layers contribute to the planets physical characteristics?
The Earth's layers contribute to the planet's physical characteristics by the types of rocks these layers produce. The rock formation of the Earth's surface define the physical characteristics of the planet.
What is the fundamental unit of lithostratigraphy?
the fundamental units of lithostratigraphy are supergroup,group,formation,member and bed.in these units formation is the key unit of lithostratigraphy.a formation consists of a certain number of rock strata that have a comparable lithology,facies or similar other properties
What potential natural events could alter sedimentary rock formation?
Natural events such as volcanic activity, earthquakes, flooding, and landslides can alter sedimentary rock formation. These events can disrupt the sedimentation process, cause sediments to be re-deposited in different locations, or change the conditions under which sediments are deposited, affecting the characteristics of the resulting sedimentary rock.
What is the most important factor governing rock texture?
The most important factor is the method by which the rock was formed. Methods of rock formation would include compaction and cementation of sediments, slow and quick cooling from magma, and metamorphism of existing rock by heat and pressure. These rock formation methods will affect a rock's mineral alignment, crystal size, and arrangement, giving it observable and testable texture characteristics.
What are some characteristics that begin with the letter O?
Observant, optimistic, outgoing and outstanding are positive characteristics. Obnoxious and obscene are bad characteristics.
