Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The metamorphic rocks are defined as those rocks that are formed due to the increasing pressure and temperature conditions. They are known as the secondary rocks because they are directly derived from either igneous or sedimentary or other metamorphic rocks. For example, Quartzite, Schist, Gneiss and Marble.

Due to the high amount of temperature and heat conditions, the chemical composition of the rock alters and changes to a more higher grade rocks. This metamorphic rocks are mainly of 2 types. They are as follows-

(1) Foliated- For example, Schist and Gneiss

(2) Non-foliated- For example, Marble and Quartzite.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

How do bird skulls(when they are embryos) relate to dinosaurs

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The skull of a bird looks similar to that of a young dinosaur when they are at their embryo stage.

Explanation:

Bird's skull at their embryo stage looks like young dinosaur's skull. This feature gives evidence of their evolution and their ancestors. The surviving member of the feathered dinosaur family are the birds. The unique skull shape of a bird shaped like a beaker with a dome like cranial resembles with the non-flying ancient dinosaurs. This phenomenon is often named as psuedomorphism. In this phenomenon, these features of the ancestor at its embryo stage is retained by its predecessors.
