Some material is carried in solution and is precipitated when physical or chemical conditions change. These precipitates also form layers of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary rocks are classified into three (3) types: Detrital sedimentary rocks: These are composed of fragments of rocks which were transpor...
Rocks are classified according to characteristics such asmineral and chemical composition, permeability, texture of the constituent particles, and particle size. ... This transformation produces three general classes of rock: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. What do geologists use to study different ...
Metamorphic rock is classified by texture and composition. The texture can be foliated or nonfoliated.Foliated metamorphic rockFoliated metamorphic rocks appeared banded or layered. Foliated rocks can be ordered in terms of increasing metamorphism. In the chart below notice how each of the first ...
I'm just your average middle age male looking for a good time in the sack, just like many of you are. You may be thinking you'd like to find the "right one" someday, but in the mean time you'd like to get your rocks off. Well, I've had some luck at it and I'm an ...
So, is there water on Mars? Absolutely! While Martian H2O may differ from Earth's, it holds vital clues about the planet's ancient history and could prove invaluable for future exploration endeavors. Surprisingly, some of this water is trapped within rocks. ...
The magnetic properties of rocks are classified either as normal, meaning that they have the same polarity as the current magnetic field, or as reversed, meaning that the polarity is opposite the Earth's magnetic field. This state of polarity becomes locked in when rock is formed. As ...
Turnips are sometimes classified by the shape of their roots–flat, round, or cylindrical. But there is little or no difference in taste among the several varieties. ‘Alamo’: usually grown for greens; harvested cut-and-come-again, leaves can regrow for multiple harvests; tolerates aphids an...
Then, one day, a ship hits some rocks near the island, and its cargo of candy washes ashore. Suddenly, 30 tons of candy are lying on the beach, and anyone who wants candy can just walk to the beach and get some. Because the candy supply is far greater than the demand, your 50 ...
