How does crystal size compare in extrusive vs. intrusive rock? Explain the cause of this difference

Biology
1 answer:
Ede4ka [16]3 years ago
5 0
The difference between extrusive and intrusive rocks are how they cool down. Extrusive rocks cool down quickly and are created by lava; because of this they have very small, fine-grained crystals. Intrusive rocks cool slowly beneath the surface of the earth and are created by magma; because the cooling process is very slow the rocks have very large crystals.

Which disappears more rapidly from a population, a deleterious dominant allele or a deleterious recessive allele?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Selection is a directional process that leads to an increase or a decrease in the frequency of genes or genotypes. Selection is the process that increases the frequencies of plant resistance alleles in natural ecosystems through coevolution, and it is the process that increases the frequencies of virulence alleles in agricultural ecosystems during boom and bust cycles.

Selection occurs in response to a specific environmental factor. It is a central topic of population and evolutionary biology. The consequence of natural selection on the genetic structure and evolution of organisms is complicated. Natural selection can decrease the genetic variation in populations of organisms by selecting for or against a specific gene or gene combination (leading to directional selection). It can increase the genetic variation in populations by selecting for or against several genes or gene combinations (leading to disruptive selection or balancing selection). Natural selection might lead to speciation through the accumulation of adaptive genetic differences among reproductively isolated populations. Selection can also prevent speciation by homogenizing the population genetic structure across all locations.

Selection in plant pathology is mainly considered in the framework of gene-for-gene coevolution. Plant pathologists often think in terms of Van der Plank and his concept of "stabilizing selection" that would operate against pathogen strains with unnecessary virulence. As we will see shortly, Van der Plank used the wrong term, as he was actually referring to directional selection against unneeded virulence alleles.

During exercise, muscle cells release the protein ________ which can cause brite/beige adipocyte formation:
shepuryov [24]

Answer: Option "D".

Explanation: During exercise muscle cells release irisin protein is being released causing Beige adipocyte formation.

the secretion of Irisin leads to the improvement in muscle activity, bone mineral density, increasing the formation of brown like Beige adipocytes in the tissue.

Adipocytes are divided into two tissues namely white and brown. white tissues generally expand during excessive nutrition and brown adipocytes have mitochondria and burn the energy during exercises resulting into the break down of ATP  molecules increasing the body heat.  

Therefore, during exercise heat generated due to the formation of brown adipocyte tissue which are formed due to the release of irisin protein.

Which phenomena release CO2 into the atmosphere?
matrenka [14]
Hello to answer your question.

A is correct
 But more likely forest fires would be the culprit because the trees produce O2
 so when the are burnt, it would be like everybody o this earth breathed out at   once causing CO2 to be released in to the atmostphere in a big burst
