GENERAL GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The main factors that control metamorphic processes are: The temperature at which metamorphism takes place. The amount and type (direction) of pressure during metamorphism. The amount and type of fluid (mostly water) that is present during metamorphism. The amount of time available for metamorphism.

Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: The factors affecting the metamorphism of the rocks are temperature, pressure and chemically fluids. Wind conditions do not affect the metamorphism in any way.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are 3 main agents that cause metamorphism. Factors that cause an increase in Temperature, Pressure, and Chemical changes are the three agents that we are going to study. Temperature increases can be caused by layers of sediments being buried deeper and deeper under the surface of the Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -The chemical composition of the parent rock. The temperature at which metamorphism takes place. The pressure applied, and whether the pressure is equal in all directions or not. The amount and type of fluid (mostly water) that is present during metamorphism. More items
