What else can I help you with?
What does sedimentary limestone turn into when heat and pressure is applied?
Marble, an intermediate grade metamorphic rock.
What 2 things are applied to igneous or sedimentary rocks that make metamorphic rocks form?
Heat and pressure are applied to igneous or sedimentary rocks to make metamorphic rocks form. Heat causes mineral grains to recrystallize, while pressure helps to rearrange the mineral structure within the rock.
All rocks are made of sediments?
Not all rocks are, only sedimentary rocks are truly made up of sediments. Some metamorphic rocks do because they are formed when heat and pressure are applied to sedimentary rocks, which makes sediments the basis of these rocks as well
The laws of superposition and original horizontality are best applied to?
the law of super position basically says, "Sedimentary layers are deposited in a time sequence, with the oldest on the bottom and the youngest on the top."
Are sedimentary rocks that form when minerals come out of a solution classified as porphyritic?
No. I believe they are called chemical precipitate sedimentary rocks. Yes, I'm sure they're called that. Absolutely! Porphyritic is a term usually applied to igneous rocks, having to do with mineral formation and rock texture.
Characteristics and importance of sedimentary rocks as applied to civil engineering?

When heat and pressure is applied to sedimentary rock it changes into what?
When heat and pressure are applied to sedimentary rock, it can change into metamorphic rock through a process called metamorphism. This process causes the original minerals in the sedimentary rock to recrystallize and form new minerals, resulting in a different texture and often a different composition.
What does a sedimentary rock before it can turn into a metamorphic rock?
Not sure what you are trying to ask. Sedimentary rocks form from sediments, but can be metamorphosed only by applied heat &/or pressure.
What you observed to the different products applied in your plants as a principles in mineral nutrition?
What you observed in the different products applied to your plants as principles in mineral nutrition will depend on which products were used. The types of plants will also play a factor.
What causes fracturing of sedimentary rocks?
Any force applied on it, erosion, pressure and heat from underground.
What does sedimentary limestone turn into when heat and pressure is applied?
Marble, an intermediate grade metamorphic rock.
Match the experimental conditions applied to the photoelectric effect observed.?
conditions of photoelectric effect
What is the Application of sequence stratigraphy?
Sequence stratigraphy is applied in the field of geology to study and interpret the vertical and lateral relationships of sedimentary rock units, helping to understand the depositional environments and changes in sea level through time. This approach is widely used in hydrocarbon exploration to identify potential reservoirs and seal rocks, as well as in environmental studies to reconstruct past environments and predict future sedimentary patterns. Additionally, sequence stratigraphy can provide insights into the distribution of resources, such as minerals and groundwater, based on the analysis of sedimentary sequences.
What makes a sedimentary or igneous rock form to a metamorphic rock?
heat and pressure is applied to the rock and it becomes a metamorphic rock.
What 2 things are applied to igneous or sedimentary rocks that make metamorphic rocks form?
Heat and pressure are applied to igneous or sedimentary rocks to make metamorphic rocks form. Heat causes mineral grains to recrystallize, while pressure helps to rearrange the mineral structure within the rock.
How are metamorphic and sedimentary igneous rocks formed?
Igneous- Formed from hot molten magmaSedimentary- formed from sediments piling up creating layersMetamorphic- Formed when intense heat AND pressure are applied to an igneous or sedimentary rock.
What happens when heat and pressure is applied to sedimentary rock?
When heat and pressure are applied to sedimentary rock, it undergoes a process called metamorphism. This results in changes to the rock's mineralogy, texture, and structure, transforming it into metamorphic rock. The original sedimentary rock's characteristics are altered, creating new minerals and rock types such as gneiss, schist, and marble.
