Why is expansion of rock important for magma to form?
Eddi Din [679]
The melting temperature of materials is affected by the pressure they are under. So when "rock" in the Earth's mantle experiences a decrease in confining pressure, not only does it expand, it's melting temperature drops. If the melting temperature of the material drops below the background (also known as the
in-situ
) temperature, then melting will occur and in this case magma will form.

Compression causes Folds called anticlines and synclines. How do these features resemble each other? How do they differ from one
Furkat [3]

The anticlines represents ridges or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping downwards from the crest.

The synclines represent through or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping upwards from the axis.

Both of these features are formed in the same manner, by compression. They are also part of a same geological occurrence. Both of them are curved, and seen from side perspective, they are representing one whole, and they look like a wave.

The difference is mainly that the anticlines are always above and they slope downwards, while the synclines are always on the bottom and slope upwards.
