Answer:

D. Ferromagnesian minerals

Explanation:

An igneous rock (formed from the solidification of molten rock material) with a very low silica content (less than 45%), low potassium content and rich in minerals, more than 90% magnesium (MgO) and iron (FeO), is known as ultramafic igneous rock (also known as ultrabasic rocks), they are dark-colored, found in orogenic (mountain-forming) belts and they are used for scientists to understand geological processes in the Earth's history. Examples include peridotite, kimberlite, lamprophyre, lamproite, dunite, and komatiite.

<em>Considering this information we can conclude that D. Ferromagnesian minerals are the correct answer. </em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Novosadov [1.4K]

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

Which would be an adaptation for living in the tundra?

funnel shaped leaves to help water runoff

deep roots to go into the permafrost

hibernation to lower metabolism in the winter

large ears to release heat

Answer: hibernation to lower metabolism in the winter

Explanation:

Hibernation is something many animals do to survive in the tundra. They hid in dens for several months during the winter. Their metabolisms get to a dormant state in which their bodies survive thanks to stores of fat gained during the summer. The Grizzly bear is an example of a tundra animal that hibernates during the winter.
