grayish i think it just looks like rock
What else can I help you with?
Which is a characteristic of all nonfoliated metamorphic rocks?
Lack of banding
What condition change igneous rocks and sedimentary rocks to metamorphic rock?
Extreme heat and pressure, like that of coal turning to diamonds. Metamorphic rocks, in turn, are then broken down or turned into molten rock, so new sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic rocks can form.
Which metamorphic rocks are massive and lacking banding?
Marble and quartzite are examples of massive metamorphic rocks that lack banding. Marble is formed from the metamorphism of limestone, while quartzite is formed from the metamorphism of sandstone. Both rocks typically have a uniform composition and lack the distinct layering or banding that is characteristic of other metamorphic rocks.
Which is a characteristic of all ninfoliated metamorphic rocks?
A characteristic of all non-foliated metamorphic rocks is that they lack a layered or banded appearance, which distinguishes them from foliated metamorphic rocks. Instead, non-foliated rocks typically have a more uniform texture and are composed of interlocking mineral grains. Common examples include marble, formed from limestone, and quartzite, formed from sandstone. These rocks are often formed under conditions of high temperature and pressure but without significant differential stress.
Changed-over rocks are called?
Metamorphic Rocks
Which is a characteristic of all nonfoliated metamorphic rocks?
Lack of banding
What major group does foliated rocks belong?
Foliation is a characteristic of some metamorphic rocks.
What rocks are made when other rocks are subjected to intense pressure and heat?
Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks, either sedimentary or igneous, are subjected to intense pressure and heat deep within the Earth's crust. This process causes the rocks to undergo physical and chemical changes, resulting in the formation of new minerals and textures characteristic of metamorphic rocks.

Extreme heat and pressure, like that of coal turning to diamonds. Metamorphic rocks, in turn, are then broken down or turned into molten rock, so new sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic rocks can form.

Are metamorphic rocks only formed by igneous rocks?
No. Metamorphic rocks can also from front sedimentary rocks and from other metamorphic rocks.
Very complex rocks families that exhibit the characteristic of banding due to extreme heat and or pressure are called?
metamorphic
Changed-over rocks are called?
Metamorphic Rocks
For metamorphic rocks which forces allow for mineral growth and change within the rock?
heat and pressure
What characteristic helps identify nonfoliated metamorphic rocks?
Nonfoliated metamorphic rocks lack a layered or banded structure, unlike foliated rocks. Instead, they typically have a granular or crystalline texture. This texture results from the recrystallization of minerals without the development of preferred orientations, giving the rock a more uniform appearance. Examples of nonfoliated metamorphic rocks include marble and quartzite.
Is metamorphic rocks made up of sedimentary rock igneous rock or other metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks
