Answer:

d. may belong to any of the three primary rock types

Explanation:

  • Metamorphic rock is the transformation of any of the existing rocks through the process of metamorphism i.e associated with changes in form. When the original rocks are subject to intense heat from below. The Pressure over these rocks causes profound hearing and compaction of rocks particles and matter.
  • About 12% of the earth's surface is made up of metamorphic rocks that are either derived from the igneous or sedimentary rocks based on texture, chemical, and mineral assemblage.  
  • Some common examples of these rocks are gneiss, slate, marble, and schist, etc that have been formed from the sedimentary processes.

What are four pieces of evidence for continental drift?
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

- Shape of the continents

- Fossils of the same species found on continents that are not connected

- Evidence of ice sheets in places that are hot in the present

- Mid-ocean ridges

Explanation:

The continental drift theory is a theory that suggests that the continents are always on the move, thus they change their shape, location, collide with each other, move away from each other etc.

The shape of South America and Africa is one of the evidences. If the shapes of the continents are taken out of a map, and the eastern coast of South America and western coast of Africa are merged, they fit in perfectly.

There are numerous fossils of the same species of animals and plants that have been found all over the world, even though the continents are isolated and separated by water bodies.

In some places that are very hot in the presence, like South Africa, have evidence of ice sheets. In the current conditions that is simply not possible considering that the temperature in this part of the world goes well over 40 C degrees.

The mid-ocean ridges are very nice proof of the continental drift theory. They are one of the evidence that can be observed in the present, where new crust is constantly forming and pilling up, while pushing the old crust sideways further away from it.
