Metamorphic rock formation from sedimentary rocks is caused by heat and pressure. After millions of years in transformation, the
heat and pressure of the Earth's crust changes the physical and chemical properties of rock creating new textures to the rock. Metamorphic rocks are separated into two categories by their texture, foliated rocks and non-foliated rocks. The foliation or _______________that occurs in metamorphic rock is because of the immense __________________ found deep within the Earth's interior. A) blending, directional pressure B) blending, multi-directional pressure C) layering, directional pressure D) layering, multi-directional pressure
The foliated metamorphic rocks are those rocks subjected to heat and pressure during metamorphism, characterized by presenting a parallel alignment of minerals, which gives the rock an appearance of layers or bands.
He is incorrect because a catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction so if there is no reaction to begin with a catalyst will not due anything.
