PLZ HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLEST IF THE ANSWER IS CORRECT -_-| |>﹏<
What are two examples of figurative language in these lines? What does each mean?

This rare form, called beryllium-10, is created when
cosmic rays from space hit the rock and split apart larger
atoms of oxygen and nitrogen. You might say that when this
happens, the rock is getting sunburned. As long as the rock
is sitting out in the open, the cosmic rays are hitting it and
beryllium-10 is forming in the outer 2 or so centimeters of
the rock. But while the rock is buried underground—before
running water chews it out of the desert floor—it’s shaded
from cosmic rays, so no beryllium-10 develops.
