Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors. Conditions like these are found deep within the Earth or where tectonic plates meet. In the rock cycle, there are three different types of rocks: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Sedimentary and igneous rocks began as something other than rock. Sedimentary rocks were originally sediments, which were compacted under high pressure. Hope this helps!

ki77a [65]

Answer:

b.Venus

  • Being a terrestrial planet, the seismic data collected from the moment of inertia and possible due to the planet plates are too rigid to move but the phases of volcanoes have been found in the craters in addition mountains, and valleys are commonly found on rocky lands points out to some degree of tectonics present under the planet.
  • Also, the size and structure of the plan tell about its core, mantle and crustal zones. Also, venus is supported to have a magnetic field not as strong as the earth which is induced by the ionosphere and Solar Winds.
