    C. metamorphic rock

    Explanation:

    As foliation in geology refers to the repetitive wearing of metamorphic, each layer s thin as a sheet of paper rocks caused due to the shearing forces in different sections of rocks. Usually occurs in mudrocks, slate, schist, and gneiss. They are oriented to small flakes of clay in slates. Usually y the impact of some physical forces affecting the growth of rocks. Often foliation is lined to diagenetic metamorphism. Igneous rocks get foliated by the crystals in convection by the larger magma chambers due to ultramafic intrusions. Foliation this in general sense ends to curve around ridges such as those of granites having often fine observations on outcrops.
