During her survey, Gabriella noticed upon closer inspection that there were preserved stream channels between the limestone laye

r and the sandstone layer, indicating significant stream erosion happened to the limestone before the sandstone was deposited on the limestone layer. No other geologic disturbance was observed or noted by Gabriella. Which type of geologic feature exists between the limestone layer and the sandstone layer

Answer:

The layers constitute fossils, calcium carbonate rocks

Explanation:

  • Limestone is a  biologic sedimentary rock and is formed by the collection of shells and debris. It can also be formed by the chemical process of sedimentary and precipitation of calcium carbonate.
  • The limestone is composed of calcium carbonate, calcite, feldspar, and Quartz. Limestone represents karst topography and consists of the chemical composition of clay, iron, feldspar, and quartz.  These are arranged in layers.

There is a large area made of schist. What is the most likely environment that existed before the area was metamorphosed? Choose
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

(C) ocean floor

Explanation:

The protolith or parent rocks that forms schists are basically mudstones and shales. These are clastic sedimentary rocks that are rich in fines(clay sized particles).

Most shales are usually formed in deep ocean floors because larger sized clastic sediments cannot reach these environments. Winds and waves acts as active agents to deposit fines on the ocean floor.

Since shales are predominantly made up of clay minerals which are products of micas that have been chemically altered, we expect these clay minerals which are hydrous(contains water) to revert back to mica under metamorphic conditions.

As metamorphic transformation progresses under intense pressure and temperature and also minerological transformation, our rock moves from slate, to phllylite and then to schists.

Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock that is usually fine grained and foliated. As metamorphism increases, mica begins to grow and a shiny lustre appears in the rock, a phyllite results. Schists have larger mica grains and are foliated also.

Desert dunes are mostly made of sandstones. Their metamorphic transformation yields quartzite.

Coral reefs ar made up of rich calcite deposits and would form a metamorphic rock known as marble.
