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.
Because they are at the intertropical converge zone. Which is where air rises due to direct solar radiation causes water vapor to fall back to earth as rain.
