What role does hot ion-rich water play in the process of metamorphism?

Biology
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago
8 0
<span>Water flows downhill, eroding the host rock to make it smooth. Water cleanses the iron­bearing minerals, which helps to delineate the crystal faces. Water boils the rocks that it comes in contact with, causing them to liquefy and slowly cool and harden into a new, stable state. Water interferes with mineral crystallization, thereby delaying the process of metamorphism. Water migrates into host rock carrying ions to stable minerals in order to facilitate growth of new metamorphic minerals. </span>

If the concentration of sodium is greater outside a cell than inside the cell, which process could move sodium out of the cell?
Papessa [141]
Diffusion occurs because of the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. This movement of molecules occurs due to a thermal motion. Diffusion normally occurs between two compartments having difference in concentration. In case of fluid it moves from the region of higher concentration to the region of concentration until a balance is reached. The process of diffusion is very important for the humans as well. The oxygen that humans breathe in gets diffused with the blood.<span>

Did the detergents containing enzymes work better at removing stains than those containing no enzyme? Why or why not?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Because stains are made of different types of molecules, a range of enzymes are needed to break them down. Proteases break down proteins, so are good for blood, egg, gravy, and other protein stains. Amylases break down starches, and lipases break down fats and grease. Washing powders usually only contain one type of enzyme, though some have two or all three.
