Why do rocks we find on earth's surface usually look so different from moon rocks?
Rocks on Earth's surface are shaped by various geological processes, such as weathering, erosion, and biological activity, which give them diverse colors and textures. In contrast, moon rocks have been exposed to a harsh lunar environment with minimal atmosphere, leading to fewer alterations and a more uniform appearance. Additionally, the moon's geological history differs significantly from Earth's, resulting in distinct mineral compositions and formations. This combination of factors contributes to the stark differences in appearance between Earth rocks and moon rocks.
What else can I help you with?
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
How do fossils provide evidence for moving plates?
Their evidence comes from rocks at earths surface.
Molten rocks that cool at the earths surface are known as?
Lava.
Where would you find igneous rocks with larger crystal at the surface or below the surface?
Igneous rocks with larger crystals are typically found below the surface where there is slower cooling, allowing time for crystals to grow. These rocks are known as intrusive igneous rocks and are usually found in the Earth's crust, in regions of volcanic activity or in mountain ranges.
In which form do many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface?
Many minerals occur naturally on the earths surface in rock form
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
How do intrusiver rocks form?
intrusive rocks are formed within the earths surface from magma. extrusive rocks are formed from lava outside of earths surface
What are mineral deposits beneath earths surface that are different from the surrounding rocks are called what?
These are called veins
How much rocks are on the surface of the earth?
Apart form the Oceans the earths surface is made of rocks.
How do fossils provide evidence for moving plates?
Their evidence comes from rocks at earths surface.
How is sedimenary rocks formed?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the earths surface when sediments hardens into rocks :]
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.
Molten rocks that cool at the earths surface are known as?
Lava.
What is in the formation of igneous rocks but not in formation of metamorphic rocks?
igneous rocks form within earths surface
What igneous rocks formed or on or near earths surface?
Volcanoes.
How can ice wear down the earths surface?
it crushes big rocks to make small rocks.
Where would you find igneous rocks with larger crystal at the surface or below the surface?
Igneous rocks with larger crystals are typically found below the surface where there is slower cooling, allowing time for crystals to grow. These rocks are known as intrusive igneous rocks and are usually found in the Earth's crust, in regions of volcanic activity or in mountain ranges.
