What else can I help you with?
What famous formation has been built with igneous rocks?
BASALT is for igneous. SLATE is for metamorphic. LIMESTONE is for sedimentary.
What are the three types of rock and their formation?
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
Why Doesn't metamorphic rock occur at temperatures 1000 degrees or higher?
if rock melts it will form magma, which leads to the formation of igneous rocks
Can you melt metamorphic rocks?
no, the process only happens to igneous rocks
Can an igneous rock become metamorphic?
Yes,so can sedimentary rocks and even other metamorphic rocks.
How does metamorphic rock formation compare to igneous rock formation?
Igneous rocks are formed in and around volcanos, metamorphic rocks are formed by the partial melting of rocks deep underground.
Can metamorphic rocks form form igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks through the process of heat and pressure, but they are more commonly associated with forming from existing metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks can indirectly contribute to the formation of metamorphic rocks by heating up and altering surrounding rocks, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.
What process is involved in the formation of all igneous rocks but not in the formation of metamorphic rocks?
mountain building
What famous formation has been built with igneous rocks?
BASALT is for igneous. SLATE is for metamorphic. LIMESTONE is for sedimentary.
Rocks are classifed as?
mineral Sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic, based on their method of formation.
Can a rock be classified as sedimentary igneous or metamorphic by its method of formation?
Yes, a rock can be classified as sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic based on its method of formation. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and cementation of sediments, igneous rocks form from the solidification of magma or lava, and metamorphic rocks form from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
What provides the heat that drives the formation of igneous and metamorphic rocks?
Earths hot interior
Rocks are classified as igneous sedimentary or metamorphic based primarily on their?
Rocks are classified as igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic based primarily on their origin and how they were formed. Igneous rocks are formed from cooled magma or lava, sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments, and metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Can Metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks.?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Does the sun driver the processes that form igneous and metamorphic rocks?
No. Heat from the interior of the Earth trying to reach the surface drives lithospheric plate movements which are mostly responsible for the formation of igneous and metamorphic rocks.
