Metamorphism and Metamorphic Rocks. A. Metamorphic rocks: Form at conditions between igneous and sedimentary rocks. Common Metamorphic Rocks. Definition Protolith : parent rock, what the rock was before it was metamorphosed. Common Metamorphic Rocks.

Metamorphism & Metamorphic Rocks. How do Metamorphic rocks form?. The rock that forms depends on:. Why Should You Study Metamorphic Rocks?. What are the 3 Agents of Metamorphism?. Heat ___________ the rate of chemical reactions. Sources of Heat:

Do Now. In your own words, describe what soil is and what it’s made up of. Aim. How do our activities help or prevent soil formation?. Soil. Weathered down rock material and organic matter Produced by weathering and biological activity. Humus. Top layer

River profile. Longitudinal profile. Fluvial/River- Areas. The path the river follows from its source to mouth is known as the river's course . When studying rivers we often divide it into 3 main sections, the upper course ; middle course and lower course .

Three Classes of Rocks . Igneous, Metamorphic and Sedimentary. Sedimentary Rock. Sedimentary rock is formed from sediment (loose material - rock, minerals, plant and animal remains) Stratification is the visible evidence of the layers

Chapter 6 Test Review. Place these notes in your Notebook. The cooling and hardening of magma deep underground results in a pluton. Plutons are intrusive. Sedimentary. Metamorphic. Marble. Geode. Gabbro. Shale. Sedimentary. Igneous. An example of igneous rock is Gabbro.

Metamorphic rocks form when the crust is exposed to rising pressure and temperature conditions. What processes can raise the pressure and temperature of the crust?. Metamorphic Rocks Are Composed of Sedimentary, Igneous, or Metamorphic Minerals that Have Recrystallized.

Chapter 10. Weathering, Soil, Erosion. Weathering . Mechanical Weathering (Physical) Pressure Release, Frost Wedging, Abrasion , Organic activity Chemical Weathering (removing or exchange of ions from the minerals) Dissolution, Hydrolysis, Oxidation , .

Metamorphic Rocks. Rock Formation. Sedimentary Rocks and Igneous rocks form from: Other Rocks. Metamorphic Rocks form as existing rocks change. Popcorn. How do you make popcorn? Add heat to a kernal . It pops and becomes a fluffy snack. Metamorphism.

Sedimentary and Metamorphic Rocks. Sedimentary Rocks. Made from sediment / organic matter Rock goes through weathering and erosion, and is broken down into tiny fragments, some of which may be chemically altered Sediment Sediment is compacted and cemented

Rock and Minera l. Review.

Ecosystems: Basics. Definition Structure Components Needs. Definition. An Ecosystem is: All the communities that live in an area as well as the abiotic factors of water, soil and climate. Structure. Highly organized and well structured environment in which all parts exist in balance.

METAMORPHIC ROCKS. What is a metamorphic rock? Metamorphic rocks form after another rock is subjected to extreme heat and/or pressure and that changes its physical characteristics. Metamorphic Rocks Appear Similar to Their Parent Rocks

Metamorphic Rock. The changes or alterations of rock in terms of texture or mineralogy from the pre-existing rock is caused by: Temperature Pressure Chemical environment changes. Metamorphism. Another factor that affects the metamorphism is the original or parent rock.
