The only explanation in this situation is that the parent rocks of the marble and slate were different. This indicates that the region once held both shale and limestone before metamorphism.

In reference to rocks, it denotes those that have undergone metamorphism—rocks that may have started as sedimentary, igneous, or another type of metamorphic rock but has since undergone "recrystallization" and taken on an entirely new form—under new temperature and pressure conditions.

For instance, when limestone is heated and compressed, it changes into marble, a more coarsely crystalline and occasionally banded rock.

When shale, a clay-rich, soft rock, is compressed, slate, a tougher rock, is created.

The alterations are frequently even more remarkable, resulting in the formation of new minerals, including garnet, mica, and tourmaline (as seen in schist).

1. The correct answer is; are body cells is going to shrink. <span>Salty seawater is a hyperosmotic solution, meaning that it has more solutes than the cell inside. The water will move (from the cell) via osmosis in order for the solutions to reach equilibrium. Also, salty solution exerts more pressure on the of the cell, so the cell will shrink.</span>
<span>
2. The correct answer cells in the fish will stay the same size. This will occur because both solutions, freshwater lake and river have similar (or equal) solute concentrations. Those solutions are called isosmotic. There is no movement of water or the solutes, so the cell stays the same.</span>

3. The correct answer is to swell. <span>This will happen because sea star egg has the same solute concentration as its first environment-ocean meaning that this solution is hyperosmotic comparing to the lake (ocean is saltier than the lake, it has more solutes). When you put the sea star egg in the lake, the water from the lake will move (via osmosis) into the egg, to reach equilibrium. Water will cause the cell to swell.</span>

________ is the proportion of dissolved salts to pure water.
Dafna11 [192]
<span>The proportion of dissolved salts to pure water in the ocean is known as salinity. This is commonly measured in parts per thousand. For example, if the salinity of an ocean is 35 parts per thousand, or ppt, this means that in every kilogram, or 1000 grams, of ocean water, there are 35 grams of salt present. The higher the quantity of parts per thousand, the saltier the water, which also means the higher the salinity.</span>
