Answer:

As described below.

Explanation:

  • The earth has core is the innermost layer and is made up of iron, nickel, and alloy rich content and is about 2,900 to 5100 km in depth, has a surface temperature that goes up to  5700 K and is responsible for producing the magnetic waves and the semis waves.  
  • And there is the densest part of the planet, followed by the cover of the mantle that is made of silicate rocks and ice and planetary layer that undergoes differential density and has a thickness of 2,900 km and is divided into the three layers of the upper, middle and the lower.
  • The uppermost layer is called the asthenosphere and forms the base of the oceanic crust followed by the lithosphere crust.  That is igneous, metamorphic and the sedimentary ricks and has a density of 2.83 g/cm.

Which factors contribute to changing igneous and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks?
Inga [223]

The correct answer are: C. heat, and E. pressure.

All metamorphic rocks need this two factors so that they can be formed from either igneous or sedimentary rocks. The metamorphic rocks form deep into the ground where the pressure is higher and the temperature is higher as well, the deeper they form the bigger the pressure and temperature they experience. According to how big of a temperature and how big of a pressure the rocks have been exposed it determines into what type of metamorphic rocks they will turn into, and according to that what kind of a texture and appearance will they have. The amount of time of exposure to heat and pressure is also key to the type and quality of the metamorphic rocks.

Advocard [28]

Answer:

The oceanic crust is forced under the continental crust and into the mantle. Crompression causes mountains to form on the continental crust. Material in the mantle melts as volatiles seep out of the oceanic crust. The molten material rises to the surface, forming a continental volcanic arc.
