Normal stress... - ANSWERSis a push (compression) or pull (tension) perpendicular to a surface
Identify the False statement. Recrystalization...(A) - ANSWERSA) Changes the mineralogical composition
of the protolith

C) Occurs when atoms migrate to new positions on the crystal lattice where they are more stable under
the hotter conditions
D) Changes the texture (shape and size) of the grains
