(There's no choices it's just fill in the blank)
Also
Most _______ rocks form under conditions found a few kilometers under earths surface
(No choices,fill in the blank)

Answer 1

During the processes of erosion and deposition, sediments that are the smaller in size will be carried the greatest distances before being deposited. Most metamorphic rocks form under conditions found a few kilometers under earths surface

Answer 2

The full sentences are given below:

1. During the process of erosion and deposition, sediments that are the SMALLEST in size will be carried the greatest distance before being deposited.

Erosion and deposition are the methods by which sand and rock particles are moved from one place to another. The erosion can be caused by water or wind. Water and wind have the capacity to transport particle from one location and deposit them in another location. How far the erosion is able to move the particles depend on the weight of the particles. It is easier for erosion to carry small particles over a long distance than for it to carry large particles over the same distance.

2. Most METAMORPHIC rocks form under conditions found a few kilometer under the earth surface.

Metamorphic rocks generally are formed from existing rocks. The existing rocks are usually subjected to heat and pressure, which cause radical changes in the chemical and physical properties of the rock. Metamorphic rocks can be formed underneath the earth surface if they are subjected to high temperature and pressure by the rock layers above them.
