What else can I help you with?
What information do rocks provides to geologists?
Rocks provides geological events and changing life forms of the past.
What is a type of withering that breaks down rocks by changing the substances within them?
Chemical weathering is a type of weathering that breaks down rocks by changing the substances within them. This process involves the dissolution, carbonation, oxidation, and hydrolysis of minerals in the rocks, leading to their decomposition.
More often than metamorphic or igneous rocks sedimentary rocks have what?
Sedimentary rocks have numerous fossils
Does rock melt when it is changing into metamorphic rock?
No, rock does not melt when it is changing into metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks form from pre-existing rocks, such as sedimentary or igneous rocks, through a process called metamorphism. This process involves changes in temperature, pressure, or the presence of fluids, which cause the minerals in the rock to recrystallize without melting.
What will determine if a rock becomes an igneous or metamorphic rock?
Geological processes form rocks. Igneous rocks are made from magmas. Metamorphic rocks are made by changing the physical environment of a previously existing rock.
Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressures underground?
Metamorphic rocks are produced by changing other rocks with temperature and pressure underground.
What is the breaking apart and changing of rocks?
Weathering.
What do you call the changing from rocks to soil?
erotion
What is the name for rocks changing between sedimentary metamorphic and igneous rocks?
The rock cycle.
What is the continuous changing of rocks called?
the rock cycle
How is the Stonehenge changing?
erosion is causing rocks to dissolve
What information do rocks provides to geologists?
Rocks provides geological events and changing life forms of the past.
Changing of rocks from one kind to another?
Is called metamorphism.
What is the process that breaks down rocks by changing the composition?
Erosion
Which type of rocks are produced by changing other rocks with high temperature and pressure underground?
Metamorphic rocks are produced when other rocks are subjected to high temperature and pressure underground. This process causes their mineral composition, texture, and structure to change, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks like marble, slate, and schist.
What is a type of withering that breaks down rocks by changing the substances within them?
Chemical weathering is a type of weathering that breaks down rocks by changing the substances within them. This process involves the dissolution, carbonation, oxidation, and hydrolysis of minerals in the rocks, leading to their decomposition.
Were rocks been changing since the beginning of the earth's creation?
Yes.
