The only explanation in this situation is that the parent rocks of the marble and slate were different. This indicates that the region once held both shale and limestone before metamorphism.

In reference to rocks, it denotes those that have undergone metamorphism—rocks that may have started as sedimentary, igneous, or another type of metamorphic rock but has since undergone "recrystallization" and taken on an entirely new form—under new temperature and pressure conditions.

For instance, when limestone is heated and compressed, it changes into marble, a more coarsely crystalline and occasionally banded rock.

When shale, a clay-rich, soft rock, is compressed, slate, a tougher rock, is created.

The alterations are frequently even more remarkable, resulting in the formation of new minerals, including garnet, mica, and tourmaline (as seen in schist).

How can scientists test their ideas about the origin of the universe if they can't physically interact with or study it?
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

<em>The cosmological principle makes assumptions that provide scientific guidelines to enable its study.</em>

Explanation:

Cosmology can be described as the study of the origin of the universe.

Although scientists cannot physically study about the origin of the universe but the cosmological studies help scientists to derive ways which makes it easier to hypothesize about the origin of the universe. There are numerous theories and hypothesis generated for the origin of universe based on the cosmological principle.  The cosmological principle states that universe on the whole is homogeneous and it looks the same at any location.
