Can various layers of minerals be easily seen in gneiss?
Yes, and it looks very gneiss.
How does a sedimentary rocks turn into a metamorphic rock?
By exposure to heat and/or pressure through depth of burial, directed pressure, or proximity to a magma source. Existing minerals can recrystallize, non-hydrous minerals can replace hydrous minerals, new minerals can be formed from the introduction of new ions from heated solutions, and minerals can become flattened and aligned in parallel layers.

What is gneiss made out of?
well I searched and found no exact answer that would help for my science homework, but I have found results close to this. I think it is either foliated rock, or consisting of layers of different minerals.

How are earths layers different?
They are different because different minerals can be found at different layers. Also, the layers closer to the core of the earth will become more hot, causing melted rock (magma) to form.
How many different groups of crystal structure are there in minerals?
There are about four different groups of crystals structures that are available in the minerals. The four have different orientations of the close-packed layers.
Rocks consisting of a mixture of minerals?
aggregates
Metamorphic rock that show layers of dark minerals alternatin with layers of light minerals are classified as?
Foliated is the correct answer!!!
What causes the different colors in sedimentary rock?
Minerals cause the layers - each mineral has a certain color (and hardness).
Foliation is the arrangement of minerals in?
Foliation is the arrangement of minerals in parallel layers.
