What else can I help you with?
What do you call the molten rocks under the earth surface?
Molten rocks under the Earth's surface are called magma. When magma reaches the Earth's surface, it is then called lava.
What are the grooves and scratches left in a rock by a glacier called?
They are called glacial striations. These marks are created by the abrasion of rocks and sediment as a glacier moves over them, leaving parallel grooves and scratches on the surface of the rock.
What is a surface made of pebbles and small broken rocks called?
thats a hard one, im not sure what the answer is. do you?
What is igneous rocks that form below Eart's surface are called?
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive or plutonic rocks. These rocks cool and solidify slowly, allowing large mineral crystals to form. Examples include granite and diorite.
What is magma outside?
Molten rocks are called Magma when under the Earth's surface. It is called Lava above the Earth's surface.
When rocks crack in sections parallel to the surface of the rock it is called .?
Exfoliation
When rocks crack in the section parallel to the surface of the rock it is called?
Exfoliation
What is a parallel alignment of minerals that have been subjected to stress called?
A parallel alignment of minerals that have been subjected to stress is called foliation. It creates distinctive layering or banding in rocks, such as in metamorphic rocks like schist or gneiss, where the minerals align parallel to the direction of stress.
What are rocks with grains arranged in parallel layers called?
Rocks with grains arranged in parallel layers are called sedimentary rocks. These rocks form when sediment such as sand, mud, or organic material is deposited and compacted over time. Examples include sandstone and shale.
What do you call the molten rocks under the earth surface?
Molten rocks under the Earth's surface are called magma. When magma reaches the Earth's surface, it is then called lava.
What are the ladder if rocks under the earth surface called?
There is no ladder if (of?) rocks under the earths surface, your question is meaningless.
The Igneous rocks that form under the surface?
Igneous rocks that form under the surface are called intrusive or plutonic rocks. These rocks cool slowly beneath the Earth's surface, allowing for the formation of large mineral crystals. Examples include granite, diorite, and gabbro.
What are the grooves and scratches left in a rock by a glacier called?
They are called glacial striations. These marks are created by the abrasion of rocks and sediment as a glacier moves over them, leaving parallel grooves and scratches on the surface of the rock.
Does magma always reach the Earth's surface?
no sometimes it cools under earth's surface. that is called intrusive igneous rocks. when it reaches earth's surface and cools its called extrusive igneous rocks.
What is a surface made of pebbles and small broken rocks called?
thats a hard one, im not sure what the answer is. do you?
What is igneous rock formed from magma below the earth's surface called?
Igneous rocks that form below the Earth's surface are called intrusive igneous rocks (or plutonic).
Rocks formed from volcanic eruption are called what?
Rocks formed from volcanic eruptions are called igneous rocks. These rocks form when magma or lava cools and solidifies, either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive) or at the surface (extrusive). Examples include basalt, rhyolite, and pumice.
