Describe a process that could account for how this strong, dense gneiss was folded without breaking during regional metamorphism.

Answer and Explanation:

As can be seen in the description above, gneiss has gone through regional metamorphism. This means that this rock has been subjected to very high temperature and pressure. This triggered a series of chemical transformations in the minerals that this rock presented that had a certain resistance to high temperature and pressure, which prevented them from breaking and promoting the breaking of the rock. However, these minerals showed strong ductility, which caused them to deform their structures, allowing the gneiss to fold, until the temperature and pressure dropped.

so whats the answer? ?

for e2020. the answer would be some directions from the mountain range so we can find mt. whitney. to locate which direction is north, you should use a   compass. this would not only find mt. whitney, but also becuase of this long paragraph you would get points because it's not like anyone actually reads your work becuase once they read the first sentence it sounds dumb enough to not read becuase i'm not good at answering this but the answer is compass for your benefit.
