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.

Because electrons are “pulled” towards the oxygen.
Answer: The phagocyte’s ability to destroy the ingested pathogen is compromised and it will become inactive.
Explanation:
There are different hydrolytic enzymes. Lysozyme attacks cell walls of gram positive bacteria. Elastase is a protease. Collagenase attacks collagen, produced by some bacteria. Plasminogen activator is also a protease.
Loss of function of any one of these enzymes will reduce or prevent the breakdown of bacteria in the phagosome (vacuole) so that the phagocyte is inactivated.
That Trait (Hitchhiker's thumb) may be recessive in both the parents but when they transmitted their genes to their offspring, it became dominant in that 'cause of two similar genes (Homozygous Condition).
Hope this helps!
