Lithified ash (or ash mixed with pyroclastic fragments) forms a volcaniclastic rock called a Tuff.
- A form of rock called tuff is created when volcanic ash is blasted from a vent during an eruption.
- The ash is transformed into a rock after ejection and deposition. Tuff is defined as rock with an ash content of more than 75%, whereas tuffaceous refers to rock with an ash content of 25% to 75%.
- The thickness of tuff often decreases with distance from the volcano and is usually greatest close to the volcanic vent. The typical shape of a tuff deposit is that of a "lens," not a "layer."
- Tuff may also be thickest on the vent's side that faces away from the wind or on the side facing the direction of the blast.

<span>Blowflies burrow into the ground at the completion or, 4th instar stage (17 mm size,) of their larval growth. After burrowing into the ground, the larvae transform into the pupal stage. They remain underground in the pupal stage for 6 to 8 days at which time the adult fly emerges.</span>
This is why natural selection acts on phenotypes instead of genotypes. A phenotype is an organism's physical traits, while a genotype is an organism's genetic makeup. This may sound counter-intuitive since the genetic makeup does get<span> passed on from generation to generation through reproduction.</span>
They are called prokaryotic cells
