The Earth's upper mantle is mainly made of peridotite, an ultramafic igneous rock with lots of olivine crystals. Which type of magma can be produced when the upper mantle undergoes decompression melting of the upper mantle peridotite at mid-ocean ridges? - correct answer -Basaltic Seismic studies of the earth have shown that the platnet's interior is made of a few layers with distinct seismic signatures and chemical compositions. The major layers of the planet include (from innermost to the...

ESS 101 INTRO TO GEOLOGY - University of Washington_ Laboratory 5A : Sedimentary Rock Formation. Fall 2022. Score for this attempt: 9.5 out of 10 In the igneous rock lab, we focused on tectonic proces ses that influence rock formation inside of the earth’s crust. Now we will turn to the earth’s surface, where rock weathers into smaller rock fragments and minerals. The solid particles and dissolved ions (charged atoms and molecules) freed by weathering processes are transported by water, wind...
