Explain the role of temperature in metamorphism.
Temperature is essential in metamorphism as it drives the recrystallization of minerals, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.
Higher temperatures always lead to lower pressure conditions.
Temperature has no effect on mineral formation.
Temperature only affects sedimentary rocks, not metamorphic rocks.

What is the geothermal gradient and why is it important?
The geothermal gradient is the rate of temperature increase with depth in the Earth's crust, and it is important for understanding geothermal energy, geological processes, and mineral formation.
The geothermal gradient is the temperature at the Earth's surface.
The geothermal gradient is the depth of the Earth's crust.
The geothermal gradient is the rate of seismic activity in the Earth.

Describe contact metamorphism and its characteristics.
The process results in a foliated texture with no new minerals formed.
Contact metamorphism is characterized by high temperatures, localized alteration, and the formation of new minerals, often resulting in a non-foliated texture.
It primarily involves low temperatures and high pressure.
Contact metamorphism occurs only at great depths.
