Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gneissic texture is characterized by mineral layers or lenses that are separated into distinct light and dark bands. This texture is typically formed by regional metamorphism where the rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressure causing the minerals to recrystallize and segregate into bands.
