Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
6 0

Anancy, also known as Ananse, Anansi, Aunt Nancy, Hapanzi and Nanzi, is a folklore character from Akan, which is an ethnic that resides in what is today the nation of Ghana, who has become famous throughout Africa, the countries in the Caribbean region. Anancy often takes the shape of a spider and is considered one of the most important cultural icon among West Africans and the Caribbean because of his insight, intelligence, and wisdom.  

Stories of Anancy, or "spider tales", represent social, ethical, and moral lessons of Akan culture and they were orally spread from African communities to the Americas and the Caribbean, via the Atlantic slave trade.

Particularly, <em>the Anancy poem</em> has been divided into two parts; In the first part, Anancy thinks and memorizes the native culture of his country which once existed but has been lost now. And in the second part, Anancy weaves and recreates the lost culture by binding past stories, cultures, words, songs of Africa.

How long does it usually take for a rock to be transform? question 4 options: a few days from 300 to 400 years about one thousan
Paha777 [63]

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.
