Metamorphic Rocks
Test Description: Test your knowledge about metamorphic rocks.
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) During recrystallization, the bonds between atoms in a mineral are broken and the atoms can join to form a
A
gneiss rock
B
new mineral
C
parent mineral
D
sedimentary rock
2) Foliation is the arrangement of minerals in
A
square or rectangular blocks
B
lines that cross each other
C
flat or wavy parallel bands
D
randomly spaced patches
3) Minerals in rock recrystallize near a magma body. The minerals change due to the magma\'s

density
B
volume
C
pressure
D
heat
4) Under pressure, shale can turn into slate. This is an example of
A
metamorphism
B
melting
C
schistation
D
sedimentation

re-forming of dissolved minerals
D
flow of lava from a volcano
6) Your rock sample has parallel bands of minerals that formed under high pressure. Your sample is
A
an unfoliated metamorphic rock
B
an unfoliated sedimentary rock
C
a foliated metamorphic rock

A
sedimentary rock
B
intrusive rock
C
any type of rock
