Most metamorphic processes takes place few kilometers below the Earth's surface. Thus, "metamorphic rocks" are formed under conditions found few kilometers under the Earth's surface.
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the compaction of sediments. Two main groups of sedimentary rocks are clastic sedimentary rocks and chemical sedimentary rocks.
Metamorphism refers to the changes in the mineral composition of the rocks. The three agents of metamorphism are heat, pressure and water.
The conversion of one form of rock to another is referred as rock cycle. In a rock cycle, an igneous rock formed from the deposition of molten magma can get converted into sedimentary rock when igneous rock breaks down into pieces and sediments. Finally, the any sedimentary rock or igneous rock can undergo metamorphosis to form metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rock can again form igneous rock by melting of magma followed by crystallization.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

There is no bar graph attached to this question, however, the question can be answered based on the information given in the question.

The answer is A) average level of happiness

Explanation:

In an experiment, the dependent variable is the variable which is measured by the experimenter. It is the variable that responds to changes made to another variable called independent variable.

In the case of this question, it can be determined, even without the bar graph, that the experiment entails how candy allowance affects a child's happiness. Hence, the candy allowance is changed to influence or cause a response in the child's happiness, which is then measured. Therefore, the AVERAGE LEVEL OF HAPPINESS is the dependent variable.

Weathering of rock and sedimentation ultimately lead to the formation of___
Inga [223]
