Botswana is experiencing one of the most severe HIV/AIDS epidemics in the world. The national HIV prevalence rate among adults ages 15 to 49 is 24.8 percent, which is the third highest in the world, behind Lesotho and Swaziland.
Young women (ages 15–24) who have HIV in Botswana outnumber young men with HIV by more than two-to-one. The national incidence rate is 1.5 per cent, or more than 15,000 new infections per year.

When magma solidifies underground, the resulting landform is classified as _______.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

1. When magma solidifies underground, the resulting landform is classified as Intrusive rocks.

2. Lava cooling on the surface of the earth forms Extrusive igneous rocks features.

3. A very large mineral is more likely to be found in Igneous rock.

4. Lava is magma that forms in long, horizontal shafts in the earth’s crust.

5. Lava with high basalt content forms high ferromagnetism through multiple eruptions.

Explanation:

1. Intrusive rock is formed when magma penetrates existing rock, crystallizes and solidifies underground to form intrusions. Intrusive rock forms within Earth's crust from the crystallization of magma.

2. Extrusive igneous rocks form when magma reaches the Earth's surface of a volcano and cools quickly. Most extrusive rocks have small crystals.

3. Igneous rock or magmatic rock, is one of the 3 main rock types. The other 2 are called sedimentary and metamorphic. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

4. Lava is molten rock generated by geothermal energy and expelled through fractures in planetary crust or in an eruption, usually at temperatures from 1.292 to 2.192 °F.

5. Mafic or basaltic lavas are best known by their high ferromagnesian content.

Eruptions associated with basaltic lava usually are not explosive due to the low silica and gas content.

Because of the low viscosity, basaltic lava flows spread out, forming extensive layers. They may build up to form a large shield volcano.

How does a contracting protostar convert gravitational potential energy into thermal energy?

s2008m [1.1K]

The answer of how it is convert is the sun generates energy by slowly contracting in size; converting gravitational potential energy into thermal energy and this is called gravitational contraction. Gravitational collapse is the narrowing of an astronomical object due to the effect of its own gravity, which tends to draw matter inward toward the center of gravity.
