What else can I help you with?
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.
When sedimentary rocks melts and then cools down it forms what type of rock?
Metamorphic rock is formed.
What do rocks do under heat and pressure?
rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
Metamorphic rocks can only be formed from?
Metamorphic rocks can be formed from any pre-existing rock type (igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks) that undergoes intense heat, pressure, or chemical changes without melting. This process causes the minerals in the rock to recrystallize and reorganize, resulting in a new metamorphic rock with different properties.
What are the kinds of rocks?
All rocks are solid. Igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.
Type of rock formed by heating and squeezing other rocks?
metamorphic.
The type of rock that is formed from rocks that already exist?
METAMORPHIC
Are metamorphic rocks naturally formed?
Metamorphic rocks are naturally formed. they are formed from natural changes that happen to other rocks.
Are metamorphic rocks only formed by igneous rocks?
No. Metamorphic rocks can also from front sedimentary rocks and from other metamorphic rocks.
What rocks are formed by the effect of heat and pressure on other rocks?
the metamorphic rocks are formed by heat and extreme pressure from other rocks
Is a scoria a metamorphic rock?
No, scoria is not a metamorphic rock. It is a type of igneous rock that is formed from lava that has cooled quickly, resulting in a porous and vesicular texture. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
Which type of rocks are produced from other types of rocks under high temperature and pressure?
Metamorphic rocks are formed from other types of rocks under high temperature and pressure. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
What type of rock is formed when other rocks are exposed to great heat and pressure?
Metamorphic.
What type of rocks are formed by processes by the sun?
sedimentary Mr. R This is incorrect. The answer is metamorphic.
When heat and pressure cause a rock to change what type of rock is formed?
Metamorphic Rocks.
What type of rocks are formed by the process by the sun?
sedimentary Mr. R This is incorrect. The answer is metamorphic.
What are the three kinds of rocks tell how each formed?
Igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary are the three types of rocks. Sedimentary is formed when layer of mud or silt build up gradually. Igneous is formed when molten magma cools. Metamorphic is formed when a type of rock changes to another type
