Rocks that feel and look the same likely share similar mineral composition and texture. Minerals present in the rock, as well as the way the rock formed (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic), contribute to its appearance and feel. Thus, rocks that appear and feel the same are likely to be composed of similar minerals and have undergone similar geological processes.

What features would you look for to correlate rocks from one region to another region?

You could look for similar fossils in the rocks. If they rocks contain the same type of fossil, they must be around the same age.

What is the look and feel of a rocks surface determined by the size shape and patternof the rocks grains?

The look and feel of a rock's surface, known as its texture, is primarily influenced by the size, shape, and arrangement of its mineral grains. Coarse-grained rocks have larger, visible crystals that can give a rough texture, while fine-grained rocks may feel smooth due to smaller, closely packed grains. The shape of the grains, whether angular or rounded, also affects the surface feel, with rounded grains often resulting in a smoother texture. Additionally, the pattern of grain arrangement can lead to varied visual appearances, such as layering or banding.


When you look at a metamorphic rock how can you tell it is one?

Understand that metamorphic rocks are those that have changed in some way by heat or pressure or both. Sedimentary rocks are formed from sediments and igneous rocks are formed by fire. When these rocks change again, they become metamorphic. Marble is one type of metamorphic rock.Look at the way the grain are formed. In schist rocks, you can see that the layers and the grains all go the same way. Warning Metamorphic rocks are difficult to classify because different amounts of heat or pressure to the same rock can look different.


Igneous rocks can look very different depending on?
