A granite can be transformed from an igneous rock to a sedimentary rock and then to a metamorphic rock or the sedimentary rock can be transformed back into granite again by metamorphism. First of all, a granite often occurs in mountains and is susceptible to weathering and erosion.. Weathering such as argillic weathering can help break t he rock down to its constituent minerals which are mostly quartz, orthoclase feldspar and biotite mica. This then gets washed down into the rivers and thence to the coast and gets deposited in a marine environment as part of a delta or alluvial fan, in the form of sand, silt, clay and gravel. As this sediment becomes compacted, it turns into rocks like sandstone, siltstone etc. With deeper burial and the addition of heat and pressure these rocks get converted into such metamorphic rocks as quartzites, slates and phyllites, etc. I have seen a meta sandstone grade into a granite in the Canadian Shield so granite can then form from metamorphic processes as well as igneous processes.
Answer:
transgression
Explanation:
In this case we will have deeper sea sediments (shales and limestones) being deposited on top of continentally-derived beach sediments (sand). This forms a sequence (from bottom to top) of: sand to shale to limestone. This is an indication of marine transgression

No here is not an ethnoburb in Davis county
Answer:
extrusive rocks.
Explanation:
When an igneous rock contains large crystals of minerals surrounded by the fine grained or glassy material (set in a matrix of glassy part).The texture is known as Porphyritic texture and the large crystals are known as Phenocrystals and the fine grained or glassy part is called as Ground mass.
When this Porphyritic texture showing igneous rocks are known as Porphyrites. The texture is largely found in volcanic and hypabassal rocks so these rocks are the extrusive rocks.
