Rock often takes "thousands to millions of years" to change into one sort of rock.

The rock cycle is the process in which the three types of rocks—igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic—are continuously changed. Increased temperature and/or pressure are necessary for the conversion of rocks to their metamorphic state, while sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks are formed through the intermediary stages of magma and sediments, respectively.

When sedimentary rocks are extensively buried under more sediments, higher pressure without a temperature rise is created. This happens in subduction zones and regions where two continental lithosphere plates meet to form mountain ranges. When rocks are elevated, worn, and eroded, the resulting detrital material is deposited in marine or terrestrial basins, producing sediments. The sediments may lithify to form a sedimentary rock if they are buried behind more sedimentary layers. When rocks melt, magma is created. When a mid-ocean ridge opens up and causes decompression melting in the asthenosphere underneath it, this melting can take place. It can also happen when a lithospheric plate sinks into the Earth's crust at a subduction zone. Upon the magma's formation, it becomes an igneous rock.

Is it practically possible [or even desirable] to practice two or three professions simultaneaously? Discuss
ELEN [110]

Answer:

In most cases - it is not possible (or desirable), & in few cases cases, it might be possible (or desirable).

Explanation:

Profession is an occupation based on proper formal qualification, training. Eg : Doctors, Lawyers.

They require specialised knowledge (accredited) to practice as a professional. So, involvement in multiple professions is not possible (desirable) in most cases, as it hinders focus & specialised competence (expertise) in single field.

However, in some cases, it might be possible (desirable) if the fields are related. And it also might be need of exposure for the professional. For eg - An economist might be economic consultant & a professional teacher in an education organisation at the same time.

Describe what made the terrain around Nome perilous? How did this contribute to the heroism of the dog teams?
katen-ka-za [31]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Based on the 1925 serum run to Nome

Describe what made the terrain around Nome perilous? How did this contribute to the heroism of the dog teams?

Answer:

Located in the Alaskan tundra, the route to Nome crossed a 5000-foot mountain peak and the unstable ice of Norton Sound, ill-famed for breaking under pressure. Furthermore, the sea was frozen for seven months during the winter, meaning that dog sleds were the only way of transportation at the time. In addition to that, the “Great Race of Mercy” happened in the middle of a great storm.

Explanation:

All of these elements made the five days journey to get the serum required to save Nome (which should have taken a month) that much more heroic.
