Final answer:
The incorrect statement about the comparison between arkose and quartz sandstone is D: Is typically finer-grained. Quartz sandstone is not typically finer-grained than arkose; instead, it has a higher quartz content and is more resistant to weathering.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question asks for an incorrect statement regarding the difference between arkose and quartz sandstone. To answer the student's question:
A: Contains more feldspar - This statement is incorrect because arkose contains more feldspar compared to quartz sandstone, not the other way around.
B: Contains more quartz - Arkose does indeed have more feldspar and less quartz, so quartz sandstone contains more quartz, making this statement true.
C: Is less resistant to weathering - Quartz sandstone is more resistant to weathering than arkose due to the high quartz content, so this statement is true.
D: Is typically finer-grained - Quartz sandstone is typically not finer-grained than arkose; therefore, this statement is false and is the correct answer to the question because it does not accurately describe a comparison between arkose and quartz sandstone.
