Solution(By Examveda Team)
Schist and gneiss are produced by medium to high grade metamorphism. In some cases gneisses are produced by higher grade metamorphism than schists. Low-grade metamorphic rocks tend to be fine-grained (the newly formed metamorphic mineral grains that is). High-grade metamorphic rocks tend to be coarse-grained.Related Questions on Lithosphere
