What does it mean if mineral grains in a metamorphic rock are arranged in bands?
Foliated rock. If you are looking for whether the rock has no bands it is non-foliated.-Anonymous person but very smart ! :)
If a metamorphic rock has grains arranged in parallel layers or bands what is the rock probably displaying?
Generically it is displaying a metamorphic fabric, specifically a schistosity. If the fabric is well developed it could also be displaying planes of cleavage.
When metamorphic rock has banded texture with minerals grains that are arranged in layers it is called?
Metamorphic rocks with a layered or banded look are referred to as foliated.
What isA metamorphic rock in which he grains line up in parallel bands is a?
A metamorphic rock in which the grains line up in parallel bands is known as a foliated metamorphic rock. This alignment occurs due to the intense pressure and heat that cause the minerals to recrystallize and arrange themselves along planes. Examples of foliated metamorphic rocks include schist and gneiss. The parallel bands give these rocks their distinct layered appearance.
Is it true or false that the texture of a sedimentary rock that does not have minerals arranged in bands is described as nonfoliated?
False. The terms folidated and nonfoliated apply to metamorphic rocks.
What kind of metamorphic rock has its mineral grains arranged in planes of bands?
Metamorphic rock with mineral grains arranaged in bands or lamellar planes are called foliated metamorphic rocks.

What would you look for to determine if a metamorphic rock is foliated?
grains arranged in solid bands.
