Jerry was given two rocks to classify. He observed that Rock 1 had elongated, flat grains and bands on it and was similar in color to Rock 2. He noticed that Rock 2 was denser than Rock 1 and had very fine particles. Jerry could infer from these observations that
Rock 1 is most likely a foliated metamorphic rock.
Rock 1 is most likely a rock formed from lava on the Earth’s surface.
Rock 2 is most likely a sedimentary rock.
Rock 2 is most likely an intrusive igneous rock.

During the deposition phase of the development of a sedimentary rock, the eroded material is
dropped to the surface after being carried from one place to another.
transported from one place on Earth’s surface to another.
compacted together and begins to harden to become solid again.
compacted and cemented together over a long period of time.

22. Thursday, September 8
A mountain range is located at a boundary where two tectonic plates are colliding. Would most of the metamorphic rock in the mountain range be a result of contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism? Explain.
The metamorphic rock in the mountain range would be a result of regional metamorphism. This is because regional metamorphism occurs when large pieces of the Earth’s crust collide with each other.
