Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The metamorphic rocks are formed directly from the previously existing rocks of all the three kinds such as sedimentary, igneous and other metamorphic rocks. This type of rock is primarily found in the convergent plate boundaries where the rocks are subjected to extreme pressure and temperature condition, resulting in the increasing grade of metamorphism, which is known as the prograde metamorphism. The rocks alters and give rise to the formation of metamorphic rocks, such as slate, phyllite, schist and gneiss.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Identificar y diferenciar las características de los instrumentos de representación de la superficie terrestre (maoas,cartas,pla
natulia [17]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

Las características de estos instrumentos son los siguientes.

El mapa, es la representación gráfica pero más sencilla de un lugar. Podríamos decir que es la descripción simplificada de un sitio, que incluye información métrica. El mapa es el documento básico que usamos para localizar un territorio determinado.

Las cartas sirven a la Geografía representando escalas con mayor detalle. Esto las diferencia de los mapas. En las cartas se pueden representar relieves más finos, incluyendo curvaturas.

Los planos son una herramienta muy útil en la cartografía porque son representaciones o descripciones que ayudan a la Geografía a describir extensiones de territorios a pequeñas escala.

En el caso del globo terráqueo, éste básicamente es usado por los profesores en las escuelas como un respaldo académico, cuyo objeto es enseñarle a los estudiantes las características generales de nuestro planeta. Es una manera lúdica y participativa de enseñar las curvatura de la tierra, los nombres de los continentes, los océanos, entre otras cosas.
