Question

c) the slope of the land d) the width of its flood plain e) b) and c) a) the width of its channel b) the extent of its meanders 26. During metamorphism, foliation develops as the result of: a) mountain building forces b) igneous intrusion e) tidal forces c) high atmospheric pressure d) b) and c) 27. A protolith's chemical composition and the maximum pressure/temperature conditions reach during metamorphism control a metamorphic rock's: a) mineral composition b) foliation e) b) and c) c) grain size d) color index

Explanation / Answer

25. The slope of meandering river is controlled by b and c (the slope of the land and the extent of its meanders).

26. During metamorphism, foliation develops as a result of mountain building forces.

27. A protolith's chemical composition and the maximum pressure/temperature conditions reach during metamorphism control a metamorphic rock's mineral composition. Mineral facies changes, which depends on the composition, temperature and pressure change support this answer.
