Which of these would BEST explain a piece of metamorphic rock that was formed from a 5000 kg igneous rock under extreme heat and
pressure? A) Metamorphic rock cannot form from igneous rock under any conditions.
B) The new metamorphic rock would have a much larger mass than the igneous rock.
C) The new metamorphic rock would have a much smaller mass than the igneous rock.
D) The new metamorphic rock would have the approximate same mass as the igneous rock.
D) The new metamorphic rock would have the approximate same mass as the igneous rock.
Explanation:A metamorphic rock is a type of rock formed under a high temperature of above 150-200 degrees and pressure of over 1000bar, this process of Subjecting certain rock types to very high temperature in order to lead to the formation of a new Rick known as metamorphic rock is called METAMORPHISM. example inclutes
Granulite,slate, marble etc.
Igneous rocks are rocks formed as a result of the solidification of molten magma.
The type of the sedimentary that are present in the Himalayas were the marble, dolomite and silts stone and shale and limestone as per the geologic records the carbon dating of the rocks reveals there ages as per the data collected from the accumulation of the sediments. The upliftment of seas and also the fossil life of the plants and animals that were found during that period.
