Metamorphic rock

three types of rock, and the listening passage explains the additional usage of sedimentary rock, which is describing as a third rock in the reading passage. The reading passage informs us about the characteristics of the three rocks. The most common rock is Igneous rock which means fire. The example of it is granite. By cooling and solidification of lava, igneous rock will be formed, and this makes up approximately 64.7% of the earth’s crust. The second common one is Sedimentary rocks, which…

Lee A. Jacobus describes Plato’s allegory of the cave as “a story in which the characters and situations actually represent people and situations in another context (448).” Plato’s work is written as a conversation between himself and Socrates. The story describes prisoners in a cave, who have only seen what their captors let them. These captors, or “people with gear,” cast shadows on the walls, which the prisoners interpret as reality. Later, they set one of the prisoners free. After leaving,…

Though, close in distance, Sailor Rock was much harder for Greg to get to from the north side, rather than the dirt road they had always used from the west. Limping uphill on one leg with a crutch and maneuvering through rocky and uneven ground, was difficult enough, until he had to pick his way through the prickly bushes and small trees where the ground leveled near its base. Since he couldn’t go very far without elevating his leg, it took him two full days to finally get there. The wild plums…

will discuss important things. We will talk about how should use the footwork to maintain the same speed as the rock being thrown. Also we will remind them that their feet should never cross over the should just be demonstrating a simple shuffle step along the side of a rock. We will also remind the students that it is important to remember that they should never interfere with the rock itself, they should never kick it or touch it with their brooms. After we have demonstrated the shuffle step…

something the size of a watermelon. It was also weird taking a shower because the doctor said it could get wet but I couldn't trust him. At school people all wanted to know what happened, I thought it was embarrassing telling people that I fell over a rock so I just told them that my brother pushed me really hard. It had gotten filled with signatures. All the signatures came from my school and of course my mom wanted to sign it too. What I learned from the story is the i need to pay more…

“How Did Lightning Kill More Than 300 Reindeer?”, written on the New York Times website, discusses the cause of death of 323 reindeer in Norway. According to the article, a lightning bolt struck the hillside on the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. The electrical current traveled 250 feet in diameter from the striking point, leading to the death of the reindeer via electrocution and cardiac arrest. When looking at pictures of the scene, people were suspicious that over 300 hundred reindeer…

they were all found in sedimentary rock. In between each fossil there were events that occurred that left layers behind, like a volcanic explosion. From this diagram, you can predict the relative ages of each strata and fossil. Before fossil "C", there was volcanic ash, then A layer of sedimentary rock, then more volcanic ash. The volcanic ash shows there were two volcanic irruption's, but they weren't right after one another they were separated by sedimentary rock. That shows there was a lot…

a definite chemical composition. Window glass is not considered a mineral, by definition, because it is not naturally occurring and it is non-crystalline. Emerald is a crystalline substance that is mined from naturally occurring igneous and metamorphic rock, generally used in jewelry because of its unique optical…

total of ten different landscape regions located within the Pacific Northwest. The rocks that are within each region provide the foundation for the landscape within the region. The study of the rock located in the region tells us about the geologic past and provides insight on the materials and processes from which the landscape was formed. I will briefly discuss each of the areas and provide insight on the types of rocks in which they are formed from. We will start with the Basin and Range…
