Question

Select probable outcomes for rock that was once near the surface but is carried to depth in a mountain belt through continental collision. Choose one or more:
A. Foliations develop.
B. Cleavage planes develop.
C. Flow folds develop.
D. Phenocrysts develop.

Answer 1

Answer:

The best answers to the question: Select probable outcomes for rock that was once near the surface but is carried to depth in a mountain belt through continental collision, would be: A) Foliations develop and C) Flow folds develop.

Explanation:

Rocks, especially in mountain ranges, and mountain belts, are in constant exposure to change due to ground movements and other environmental conditions that permit this change. As time passes, and with continental movements that are common in mountain belts, rocks, especially that were once at the surface of the mountain are taken in and carried to the depth of the mountain. These rocks assume different forms. One such formation is known as the folations, and these rocks look like sheets, or plates. The other is the flow fold.

Answer 2

Answer:

A)

C)

Explanation:

A) foliations develop.   A foliation is a repetitive layering in the methamorphic rock. I like the sheet-like planar structure

C) Flow folds develop. Folds occur when one or a stack of flat and planar surface are bent or curved as a result of permanent deformation
