Hard minerals are one of the main conditions that lead to a slower rate of weathering.


Rocks are made from different minerals and each mineral has different degree of hardness.  Therefore, rocks made from <em>extremely hard minerals keep colder</em> and resist longer to weathering changes than the ones made from soft minerals.

the oldest rocks on earth date from about 4.2 billion years ago. what does this suggest about the interval between 4.6 billion y
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The Hadean eon represents the time interval between 4.6 billion to 4 billion years back. It is marked by the initial formation of the earth , right from the time of gathering and accumulation of interstellar dust particles and gases, and there was frequent collision between the planetesimals of relatively larger in size. The core and the crust formed and started to become stable and also gradually led to the formation and expansion of the ocean and the earth's atmosphere.

This is how the earth gradually started to form and develop and took the shape during the time interval between 4.6 billion to 4.2 billion years old, and where the oldest rocks found on earth is dated from about 4.2 billion years in the past.

How might an invasive species threaten biodiversity
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The invasive s p e c i e s tend to diminish the populations of native s p e c i e s because they outcompete them, and also manage to disturb the ecosystem.

Explanation:

The invasive species can or cannot be dangerous for the native biodiversity, but unfortunately, it is the second one that is much more common. The reasons as to why the invasive species tend to threaten the biodiversity are that they often don't have a native predator that will control their numbers, outcompete the native species for resources, and the native species don't have defense mechanisms against them. These factors result in havoc in the ecosystem in a relatively short period, with the potential to totally destroy it and changed it.

There are thousands of examples of invasive species around the world, some much more obvious than others. The Burmese pythons in Florida for example, have started to overtake the a p e x predator niche from the alligators by directly attacking them. On the other side of the world, in Australia, the cats and rabbits have contributed to leading hundreds of native species on the verge of extinction, and if there hasn't been human intervention there is a very high chance that a lot of native species would have been already extinct.
