How would you best describe the texture of an igneous rock that formed extremely slowly underground? question 7 options:?

1 answer:

8 0

6. pegmatitic (a pegmatite is a very coarse-grained intrusive igneous )
rock

7. shallow sea (limestone is the most common cemical sed rock, and they are most commonly in shallow marine environments)

8. sunlight (wind, water and ice are the primary mechanisms for the breakdown and transport of rocks and their erosional products)

9. addition of heat and pressure (heat through contact metamorphism with an igneous mass or by compression and deep burial, and pressure through tectonic forces)

10. a different metamorphic rock (this sounds like a trick question. The use of "additional pressure" implies that pressure has already been applied, in which case a metamorphic rock has already formed. Therefore, a "different metamorphic rock" will result)

11. stratification (strata are sedimentary layers)

12. sedimentary (a conglomerate)

13. extrusive (lavas have formed by "extrusion" from a volcanic edifice

14. organic (includes coal and limestone)

15. it will fizz in acid. (marble still is made up of calcium carbonate, which is the chemical which reacts with acid and fizzes)

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The answer is "planet C"

Explanation:

The answer would have to be C because of the mass of the planet, some people would say that is not exactly true in a lot of cases but in your problem the planet with the most gravitational exert would have to be planet C .One last thing you should know...'the Universal "LAW" of gravitation'. Laws/Principles can only be verified and cannot be proved. Laws are conclusions based on experiments.

Punnett Squares are used by geneticists to determine the likely genotypes of the offspring of two parents.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

That's correct - it's a square where on one axis, the paternal allele (allele = one of the possible forms of the same gene), and on another the maternal allele is listed. Often, it's also indicated whether an allele is recessive or dominant.

Then, in the table that results, all the possible "combinations" of allele between the paternal and maternal party are created. If you count how often a certain combination appears, it indicates the likelihood of that combination.
See the picture (though it is directly from Wikipedia, please note). The likelihood of BB is 25%, of Bb is 50%, and of bb 25%.
