11. Name the process through which metamorphic rocks are formed. Give any two examples of metamorphic
rocks.
Answers
Explanation:
When granite is subjected to intense heat and pressure, it changes into a metamorphic rock called gneiss. Slate is another common metamorphic rock that forms from shale. Limestone, a sedimentary rock, will change into the metamorphic rock marble if the right conditions are met.
IN SHORT:-
They can form from tectonic processes such as continental collisions, which cause horizontal pressure, friction and distortion.
Some kinds of metamorphic rocks -- granite gneiss and biotite schist are two examples -- are strongly banded or foliated.
