Describe what needs to occur in order for a metamorphic rock to form.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Any sort of prexisting rock whether sedimentary, igneous, or even metamorphic rock must change under extreme conditions like extreme heat or pressure.

Explanation:

An igneous rock is a rock that has been created via cooling of magma.

A sedimentary rock is formed from sediments, whether they be natural like seashells, or other pieces of older rocks that have worn away. usually formed under pressure.

A metamorphic rock is a rock that's changed, because it was put under extreme pressure or exposed to extreme heat.

Think of the part morphic in the word metamorphic-it literally means that it morphed or that it changed dramatically.

There are two ways for a rock to become metamorphic under <u>extreme pressure</u> or <u>extreme heat</u><u>.</u> and there are two types of metamorphic rocks, <u>contact</u> <u>metamorphism</u> and <u>regional metamorphism</u><u>.</u>

Those mean pretty much exactly what they say.

If you have any more questions, ask, but i think I covered the most important parts of the answer.

best of luck

Olegator [25]

Answer:

The adaptation in owl butterfly helps it to camouflage and also protects it from predators. Adaptations allow organisms to be better suited to their environment. So the answer is both 'A' and 'B' .

Explanation:

Owl butterfly use the concept of mimicry. It is a form of <em>adaptation</em> in which they fool the predator in thinking that they are owls and not butterflies. These butterflies have eyespots under their wings. By flashing them they look like the <em>eyes </em>of an owl.

Since owls feed on small animals, and small animals feed on butterflies, the owl butterflies protect themselves from predators. The small animals thinking that the butterfly is an owl, run away instead of coming closer. This way these small insects camouflage and protect themselves.
