<span>Metamorphic rocks that have a banded appearance due to the alignment of minerals are called C. foliated. 
Clastic means that rocks are made of weathered bits. Nonfoliated rocks do not have a layered or banded appearance, and some examples would be marble, quartzite, etc. Glassy rocks are rocks with few or no crystals, such as obsidian and pumice.

At Central Online High School, 45/100 of the children have a dog, 30/100 of the children have a cat, and 18/100 of the children

Answer:

The probability of children who have both a cat and a dog is 63/100 or 63%

Explanation:

45/100 or 45% of the children already have a cat so you would add that to the amount of kids who already have a cat and a dog (18%)...Therefore 63% of students have a cat already may also have a dog.

Bowen’s continuous reaction series describes the crystallization behavior of a singlemineral (with variable chemical composition
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

C. plagioclase

Explanation:

From the magma silicate crystals are formed successively when the magma temperature reaches the typical melting temperature for each type of crystal. The first crystals formed at high temperatures can then change their composition or dissolve again. In this way the crystals already formed contribute their ions, molecules and atoms to magma and combine again forming new crystals whose melting temperature is lower than that of the first crystals formed. The new crystals are said to be stable at the lowest temperatures set now. These processes of change are called reactions. As several successive reactions occur as the magma temperature decreases the ordered series of reactions is called the BOWEN series in honor of the Canadian scientist who formulated this concept. There are two types of reactions, the continuous reaction and the discontinuous reaction.

<u> By continuous reaction a crystal formed at high temperatures such as a plagioclase rich in the Ca2 +</u> component gradually varies its composition by replacing a portion of the Ca2 + ions with the Na + ions and a portion of the Al3 + ions with the Si4 + ions. To maintain its neutrality, the replacement of Ca2 + by Na + is coupled with the replacement of Al3 + by Si4 +. The series of continuous reaction starts from the plagioclase rich in Ca2 +, passes through several plagioclase of intermediate composition towards the plagioclase rich in Na +

The earth is closer to the sun during summer in the northern hemisphere than it is during winter.
Nataly_w [17]
Salutations!

The Earth is closer to the sun during summer in the Northern Hemisphere than it is during winter. True or False?

True. The Earth is closer to the sun because during the summer, the sun rays are directly hitting towards the Northern Hemisphere which makes it hot. During the winter, the sun rays are not directly hitting, thus, its cooler in winter than in the summer.

Hope I helped :D
