Which formation moves sediment and erodes rock?
gogolik [260]

The correct answers are:

<em>C) glaciers;</em>

<em>D) rivers;</em>

The glaciers, with their massiveness, sheer force and weight, are able to break down both, big and small parts of the rocks, thus eroding them. Considering that the glaciers are also moving, though slowly, they are transporting the eroded material over shorter or longer distance, depending on the length of the glacier itself.

The rivers, with their force and also with their chemical composition, manage to erode the rocks little by little, and than transport the eroded sediment. The transportation distance depends on the length of the river, as well as its speed.

Igneous rocks formed on or near Earth’s surface<br><br> A) extrusive<br> B) Intrusive<br> C) lava
bulgar [2K]

The correct answer is - A) extrusive.

The extrusive igneous rocks, and the type of igneous rocks that are forming on the surface or very close to the surface. This type of igneous rocks are forming very quickly because the magma is cooling down very quickly, thus giving them some specific characteristics.

These types of rocks can be easily distinguished from the intrusive rocks, the extrusive ones, because of the quick formation, have very small crystals, almost unnoticeable, while the intrusive ones, because they have much bigger period of formation, have nicely formed, easily noticeable, big crystals.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

As described below.

Explanation:

  • As the magma from the volcano rises up it begins to settle as crystals and causes the chemical compositions to change and the magma has less of magnesium and more of the silica contents.  
  • A volcano that has more of silica oxide and a high temperature but low silica contents results in a more fluid or basaltic magma and a high content result in a viscous magma and they are of high explosive in nature like the Stromboli volcano and Mount Vesuvius.
