Igneous rocks are formed by hot melted magma coming from the Earth's core that crystalizes when gets in contact with air. They can be either intrusive or extrusive. B) <em>Large mineral crystals.</em>

<h3>What is the igneous rock?</h3>

These rocks come straight from the interior of the Earth.

A liquid mass of silicate composition comes from the Earth's core. This melted mass comes at an extremely high temperature.

Magma begins to cool and solidify during its ascent to the Earth's surface. It solidifies and crystallizes into igneous rock following the magnetic field orientation.

Thre are two types of igneous rocks

• plutonic rocks ⇒ in areas close to the terrestrial crust ⇒ intrusive

• volcanic rocks ⇒ on the surface ⇒ extrusive

According to this description, the correct option is B. <em>Large mineral </em><em>crystals</em><em>.</em>

The incidence of skin cancer has increased dramatically in parts of Australia where people are experiencing greater UV exposure
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

1. stratospheric ozone depletion

2. climate change

3. desertification/land degradation

4. freshwater decline

5. biodiversity loss.

Explanation:

1) Stratospheric ozone depletion- ozone layer is the protective layer around the earth that protects us from harmful rays such as UV rays coming from the sun. There are depletions or holes in the ozone layer in some parts of Australia and therefore, therefore leading to skin cancer.

2) climatic change - The change in the average temperature or precipitation of an area that takes place due to global warming that changes the earth's climate is changing rapidly.

3) desertification or land degradation - It occurs due to past overuse of fertilizer or barren land that has zero crop yield.

4 )freshwater decline - freshwater is an essential part of the irrigation of crops in agriculture and due to the downfall of groundwater its decline the freshwater produce in these parts.

5) biodiversity loss - Coral reefs are habitats for many aquatic organisms and used as various ways of biodiversity. If there is a loss or decrease in their numbers it will affect and decline the biodiversity of the area.

Select the correct answer. Which statement correctly explains the polarity of the water molecule? A. The hydrogen end of the mol
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

option B) The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge.

Justification:

The electronegativity of an element accounts for its relative ability to attract electrons.

Being oxygen more electronegative than hdyrogen (the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 while the electronegativity of the hydrogen is 2.20), the electron density will be displaced toward the oxygen, letting it with a partial negative charge and the hydrogen with a partial positive charge.

Finally, since the charge is not symmetrical distributed around a center of the molecule, the molecule ends being polar.
